    Default Should political or religious sigs and avatars be allowed?

    Ok, please vote and provide any additional comments in the thread.

    Yes, they should be allowed. If people are offended by religious or political signatures, they have the option to ignore that person (likely, they have a problem with them anyways, or so it seems from the people complaining on it and how they treat each other) -- and if that doesn't work, they can turn the signatures and avatars off in general. When personal options and remedies already exist, policy changes shouldn't have to take place.

    Let us have them.

    And personally, I think this many options makes the decision making a lot harder. I mean, defining what is positive and all that stuff? Come on. Either yes or no. Shouldn't be this difficult or confusing.

    Although I couldnt ever possibly be offended by any av or sig, I do want there to be one consistent standard when it comes to this and other areas.

    Life is difficult. Very few yes and no answers along the way, and lots of shades of 'maybe'.

    Ugh. I totally voted for the wrong item because I read the list wrong.

    Please take one vote off the first option. I will PM my actual choice.

    I think the world is coming to an end, because I agree with Cicero 100% on this one.

    I will just quote him to give my choice.

    My question would be...do visitor's or guests on our site have the option to turn off offensive sigs/avvies? If not, then no political or religious sigs/avvies.

    Maybe GEM will share her dork moderator pin.

    I voted the way I did because I'm just that kind of person. And a dork to boot, but not a moderator, so I'm just a jr dork I guess.

    Wait, are there two of the same options for All Political/Religious signatures or is that just me? I took my meds, I might be off.
