    ... our comments won't be popular with some people, because a clique of prolific posters will in some cases be the worst offenders.
    .... Nothing is so witty or profound that it needs to be repeated tens of thousands of times in the signature of a prolific poster.
    There's no need for such horrid manners.  If you don't like them, strip ALL of them.  Lyn has shown you how to go about it.

    I didn't realise you could turn the signatures off (thanks for showing how), features like that are good to have (should probably default to no signatures for accessibility).

    I agree that the default should be 'no signatures' for the reason you give. Having seen the screenshot of the effect they have for some users it would seem to be the best choice, particularly as those who struggle because of the signature block are also those who will have most difficulty in finding how to remove it.

    Nora has always been very helpful to people who have difficulty in setting their Account Options ... and of course the signatures are automatically screened out on the 'mobile' format anyway.

    I tried Chrome for GW too, but have gone back to Internet Explorer, may be old fashioned but my Laptop is used to it and seems to prefer it.
