By your rank, I assume you know what signature means in the forum. The Forum per se is a place for sharing ideas on bitcoin but not limited to only bitcoin, it captures alt coins as well as political and economical discussion. Signature is an advert mechanism for companies or related entities where users are required to make certain number of posts in order to get paid and by implications, it leads to numerous post with less content and meaningful conversation. Consequently, signature are disable in the board where serious discussions are being discuss in order to keep the board clean and convo relevant.

Signature campaign guideline.

Signatures are one of elements in forum and theymos let it shows because he wants to give forum members to get income but don't abuse it. He can disable all signatures if he want to and if he feels signature campaigns nurture shit posters and spammers.

Ideas for improving post quality?

The purpose of the forum

This forum exists to provide a platform for the free (but ordered) exchange of ideas. If you have an idea to express, then it is probably possible to do it here as long as you follow the rules.

A lot of people come here primarily looking to make money. The forum administration is very happy that people are able to use the forum in order to better themselves; indeed, one of the reasons for Bitcoin's creation was to break the artificial barriers which prevent so many people around the world from attaining prosperity. However, if your attempts to make money conflict with the forum's primary goal of enabling discussion, then you are swimming upstream, and you will not be sucessful in the end.

If you view the forum as some sort of "job" where you complete some basic tasks and get paid, then you will almost certainly be disappointed, and the forum administration will not be sympathetic. If you do make money using the forum, then it will be through innovation and entrepreneurship, not any sort of mindless busywork.

Forum members can disable (hide) all signatures and avatars with their profile settings.

Do you want to get serious things like this

What are everyone's ideas for improving post quality?

I have mostly ruled out:

- Removing signatures or sig ads globally.
- Requiring payment to wear sig ads.
- Banning account sales.

Some boards are excluded thou this depends on each campaign manager preference. Some board have less post simply because members are not interested in them and the purpose of signature campaign is to create awareness about a particular site or whatsoever with the aim of getting traffic by spreading it where majority of Forum users are active in.

Each manager and each campaign has different rules. You have to follow the manager rules and campaign rules to stay in and get eligible posts for payment.
