The people trying to use the forum outside of the app care, because it's annoying, and it would clutter up the forum with meaningless advertisement. People can turn off signatures if they don't like them, but there's no escaping advertisements in the posts themselves.

Also, please don't necro threads unless you have a good reason; the last post here in the original discussion was 4 months ago. I haven't seen anything about this on the forum for a while, so I don't think it's much of an issue anymore; the moderators said it was banned, and they've kept it pretty clean since.
