I've recently developed this weird irrational hatred for users who end their posts with their nicknames. I don't even understand it. It's like me and my intuition having a conversation:

Intuition: hey, see that guy with his nickname at the end of the post? Hate him.
Me: but... why?? He hasn't done anything wrong (or so it seems).
Intuition: shut up and trust me
Me: ok, if you say so...

So can anyone explain it to me? In case you've forgotten how it feels like, here we go:

For some reason, I hate you right this very moment.

Also, I think it's less required these days, except for work/formal electronic exchanges. In a forum it's totally silly. I think the last time I did it on a normal basis I was using 2400 kbps modems to connect to Renegade system BBSes.

Yes, I email sponsors... to thank them. Don't post drunk, kids. My king, what has become of you?

There used to be a guy on Usenet who STARTED every post with his name, and would do it multiple times if quotes were broken up. Typical post would be:

Alex:

blah blah

[quoted text]

Alex:

But blah blah blah.

Could be worse.

Remeber there was a guy few years ago who would end his posts with a photoshopped image of his nick filled with lens flare effects?

It lasted for 2 or 3 posts only, though.

What if instead of their name or a lense flaired photoshop image, you just end every post with a pictoral representation of your username?

I sincerely feel that I would not feel angry about people signing a post with their name if the rest of their post was in the letter format.

I say we take this to a whole new level. We can sign our names after we link a picture of our user name. OT: I really do hate people who have to sign their name after every post. Like, just in case you didn't know who wrote it ima remind you.

What I love about your name cheerio is that when you sign off with it it looks like you're just saying 'Cheerio!'.

Oh yeah,

Maybe you where not there back then but it is generally good mannered when you wrote letters to sign them at the end with your name or nickname, because unlike here the letter itself did not say who is writing. It is just a conventional thing, its not that people are trying to highight themselves.


I still end pm' s signed with my nickname.

Cheers,

I don't really see what the big problem is. Do you also get mad at people who do it in their emails? It's not ridiculously different.

It's only a good thing if you sk8. The only thing worse is people who don't use spaces properly when it comes to punctuation marks . Makes everything look dumb , don't you agree ?

You know, I actually kind of agree with the original post, except instead of "hate", I'm just irritated when people write a signature in their post. I mean, first of all, you already have a signature, you know, the one below all your posts? Second of all, is it really necessary to be that formal? Think about it - I believe it's good to be polite, but being overly-formal comes off as pretentious and, in some cases, condescending. I think that defeats the purpose of being polite, which is to be respectful of people.

Since all posts begin with your name, it's redundant. I don't think it's overly formal or anything.

I want the clip "It's impractical and unnecessary!" from System Shock 2 to play whenever someone tries to end their post with their username.

If a post is long enough though, maybe you can fool people. That would be cool.

I'm iMAniaC and I write: But to all of you claiming that there's no need to add the username at the end because it's already possible to add a signature, I agree with the guy who said that people do not really notice the signature.

I'm iMAniaC and I continue to write: However, that could easily be said about the nick on top of the post, too; no one notices those unless they have a fancy icon or another colour or something like that.

I'm iMAniaC and I write even more: So to be absolutely sure people notice your username, it's only logical to include it in the post itself, so there won't be any misunderstanding about who has actually written the post.

Best Regards,
iMAniaC

something like that lol


Lol this reminds me of design forums. Since it was for people who are learning design, they didn't put a limit on the signature size, so you would see people with a whole fucking screen worth of photoshop signatures
