Could someone explain to me in simple terms what a 'signature campaign' is?
A signature campaign is:
A way for an advertiser to create an incentive for greedy people to fill the forum with thousands of posts of completely useless nonsense. The advertiser offers a small payment in exchange for the user to add the advertiser's ad to the user's signature space. The user is required to create a particular number of posts on the forum so that the advertiser feels that the ad will get noticed. Since the average greedy unknowledgeable user doesn't have enough useful and well thought out things to say to meet the advertiser's quota, they end up just spamming threads all over the forum with useless drivel. Serveral of the regular forum users have taken to blocking (using the "ignore" link) all users with a signature ad campaign in their signature. Therefore, by participating in such a campaign, you significantly increase the likelihood that helpful and knowledgeable users will never see anything that you post here.
I have problems with this let me enlighten you to the issues here, an "incentive for greedy people" you speak about and then go on to say advertisers offer a "small payment in exchange for their signature space" Can you tell me that you think that actually makes any sense?
Let me take this opportunity to say, how sorry I am that not everyone can be as smart and knowledgeable as you and that not everyone has enough money to buy into bitcoin like you sir, or have enough time to spend 160+days on a forum!
If I was to need/want to wear a signature, do you think I would care for one moment people like you would ignore me lol! Please after this I ignore you! Take the chance to find your way to the light my friend, hopefully you are "smart and knowledgeable enough" to know where you need to travel from.
One last thing smarty pants, you spell "several". Your welcome.
