ICQ and apolyton? Suffering from ads?

I was just wondering why I can't insert html codes in the signature!?! I would like to have a such code: <img src=/forums/"http:/web.icq__icq=87239215&img=2"_>_.html in my signature, but I can't! Is there some special reason why not?

Support Apolyton, buy Civilization: The Boardgame

Did you ever see HelloKitty's signature at MtG'sFreeFireZone boards? It was a giant pink/yellow/blue banner that scrolled its way across the screen, with scrolling text, and a dropdown menu that changed more text inside the same banner to give all sorts of opinions on things. Generally it was an obscenely large, offensively attention-drawing and incredibly irritating, and possible because of allowing HTML code in signatures.

I would think its something to do with that, and the ability to the have HTML image tags which could be so easily misused.

Support Apolyton or Terrorists Win

In many cases here... the reason that certain things aren't allowed any more is because some idiot found a way to abuse it

Increase the size of your Attachments

the bad apple rule applies across the board....besides the board would probably slow down considerably if this were allowed.... and its slow enough as it is with all the traffic these days

Support Apolyton, buy Civilization III: Complete

They'd be cool, but they'd slow the board down even worse than avatars.

Inflate your Upload Space

ok. I have never seen some which were annoying, but that explains it, it would defently be annoying to have a half-screen jpg/gif telling that he/she is online

And yeah, the speed...somehow I completely forgot to think about that. Thinking about how slow it would be if everybody had such one in their signature

I think that'd be tacky myself.
