You know what, I didn't even realise Juniors couldn't have a clickable signature since then. I swear I've still seen Juniors with them. I'm a strong proponent of removing signatures completely from lower ranks and also requiring at least one merit to become a Junior, but I don't think it would effect traffic one bit.

It was implemented right before the Merit system was.

Jr Members can no longer have signature links.

At the time I assumed with the objective of excluding them from signature campaigns but that didn't work as they just use text versions of the URL. I think Google's crawler must still see it as a backlink so it is still worthwhile to advertisers.

Regardless of backlinks it's still a very good advertisement here. A public billboard doesn't have a clickable links but it still gets their message/product out there and people will just do their own research (or googling) if/when they see it and it's something they're interested in. ICOs have absolutely nothing to lose by paying Juniors in tokens they've pre-mined for free and they will pay them for whatever crap they post so that's why I think we'll have to force their hand into not accepting them.
