    Because some of us are posting at work.

    Nope....work is for facebook and broncosforums. That way when I am at home, I can enjoy my family and do other things.

    I agree, to an extent.

    It doesn't make a difference to me, at all...but I could see it bothering some.

    I think as far as appropriateness goes...if it's something you would see in a commercial, then it should be appropriate for here.

    That would include negative sigs/avys as well as positive.

    Anything that's worse than what you'd see on TV probably doesn't belong on here anyway...

    I prefer to have them turned off because, to me, most of them make the board members look childish. I was part of one board that had no sigs or avys and it looked far more professional and serious than the typical boards with the usual collection of cartoons, UFC wrestlers, half-naked women and the like.

    Just my 2 cents.

    As long as the avy or sig isn't a violation of the rules, such as being racist or vulgar, then they should be permitted.

    My most recent avy that I was instructed to take down was a Che/Obama avy that stated "Same Old Socialism." Politically incorrect to some? Yes, but not a violation of the rules.

    Wrong.

    Offensive and inciting.

    Your politics, especially, now that its brought up need to go.

    I have to deal with your ideals, enough when I go in to the political threads, I don't want to deal with it when I'm in the Broncos forum.

    And furthermore, it brings nothing, absolutely nothing, to a football forum.

    If you want to make a statement, go to a politics site. Here, it just makes you look bad, and it makes many of us not take you seriously.

    I certainly am.

    But, that's not really the point of the thread subject, is it?

    I guess I just don't see how you are going to let a random dude you have never met ruin your day and get under your skin with a simple picture.
