I don't get why scum were advertising for them too

The same reason that people advertise gambling websites that acquire money from those who don't understand the mathematics of negative expectation:

Greed.

Haha. Called out. No shit, right?

This sig campaign thing is a noxious epidemic. I've been rockin' my current sig for several weeks now. Chew it, shills.

I understand your point of view, and I even agree with your disposition to automatically deduct credibility points from users with rented sigs. The quality of the posts tend (in some cases) to drop significantly, because the person is only interested in QUANTITY posting, but sometimes lack QUALITY.

So, the idea in deducting credibility points can be a way to stimulate more quality from this situation (or at least to be a filter to protect you from wasting your time).

But, anyway, there are exceptons: I mean, users who rent their signature and work (hard) to keep quality... (Although I know I am not the best contributor to this forum, I try to keep some quality).

This is not a tragedy, but a sour "comedy" which has run on for too many seasons with different actors in the lead roles.

I also agree with you: a sad comedy.
