    Did you have one previously? Far as I know, there isn't a number of posts required before you can have one, but the right can be taken away if abused by spamming links in your posts to your own sites or affiliate links, self promotion, etc.

      It's not helpful to anyone, to offer random guesses, Emile.

      There isn't a post-count requirement for signatures.

      Members who aren't allowed a signature are normally those whose signature privilege has been withdrawn by the moderators in response to previous signature-file use, and those who have made posts drawing attention to their own signature-files.

      The signature-file rules are in this post: http://www.warriorforum.com/main-int...rum-rules.html

      (People who have lost their sig-file privileges have sometimes been known to get them back, by explaining privately to the moderators that they're now fully aware of what they did wrong, and offering an assurance that they won't repeat it. "Just saying" ... ).

      I see you've changed your post to also include a link to your signature.

      You'll probably get your signature removed now too.

      No, you just need to set it up in your user control panel.

      Just when you think you've got it all figured out, someone changes the rules.

    Looking at your stats to the left, it appears you only have 68 posts, and not 69.

    Perhaps that might be your problem?

      You don't need any posts to have one though.

    Roy,
    Why? Anybody can help me here?
    Yep.

    Your profile says you're from Canada, and your signature was links for a Canadian cellphone repair business. But you're posting from India.

    Conclusion: You're an SEO link spammer. The only real question is, why were you not banned outright when that was spotted?

        That's not as improbable as some I've seen. A common tack lately has been to use names like "Margot Astonbury" coupled with email addresses like janeworthingford@example.com. All from Bangladesh, and all link spammers.
        PS. and still not banned....
        If memory serves, that was an artifact of the broken search function. The post that prompted me to look was clearly hand-typed and sensible, and it seemed more productive to let him stay on that basis, and just eliminate the possible incentive for posting junk.

    I think there is no need of count of posts to add signatures but signatures should be relevant to the post and not spammy. Spammy signatures will be removed.

    Is there a preference setting I have to change, even the above users I do not see any signatures.
    I wonder if this is based on the new WF forum theme?

      I think so, yes.

      If you can't see signatures, that's probably because the option to see them is disabled in your profile. Click on "User CP" - near the top left of any page here - and then on "Edit Options" in the drop-down menu. Then on the next page scroll down (quite a way) to the part headed "Thread Display Options" and check the box marked "Display signature files". Then scroll to the bottom of that page and click the "save changes" button. That should fix it.
