There are over 115K members. We can't see everything everywhere all the time. We step in when we see the rules being broken. If you see the rules being broken (especially for something offensive), report it. You can report offensive posts using the red triangle to the left of the post. There isn't a method to report sig violations, but you can pm me, CRAGER, or another supermod.

An addendum to that is that we mods have been told not to bother sponsors about their sigs. Also some mods themselves don't follow sig rules and I've stopped bothering them about it (there are different levels of mods.. regular mod, supermod, admin... I'm a supermod or whatever the correct terminology is).

You also need to know that we change a users signature - and 5 minutes later they change it back. Sometimes we catch it again sometimes we don't.

btw: we appreciate you keeping yours to regs, setting by example

You can always PM me as well, I change 10-20 signatures a week at least.

We don't consider it ratting on other people, just helping keep the site enjoyable.

It might seem harsh to hassle people for minor violations, but we have to draw the line somewhere. Each time you let something slide, it's human nature for people to push a little harder.

If we didn't enforce the sig rules, next thing you know we'd have people with 40 lines of text and pics that are 1500x850. Who wants to see all that crap every time someone posts?

More like a Pinks run..."I won't take anything less than 6 car lengths.."

Also can be PM'd to change a signature, it isn't being a tattle-tale as pointed out.

I used to do that in a day.
Just go in the GTO section.
You'll rack that up quickly.
I don't do that much anymore though.
That got tiring (and I was tired of the constant flak).
