Question Signatures are Google Ads

Any idea why signatures on this site are showing up as google ads to me? Anyone else seeing this?

Should I be on meds

Re: Signatures are Google Ads

Here's how the google ads and signatures work.

If you have less than 250 posts on this website, then you will see a google advert after the very first post on each page.... you will also see another google advert after the very last post in the thread on the last page.

We have a modification installed called 'Conditional Signatures' which allows all signnatures from Admins and Moderators. User Signatures will ONLY appear on posts with words totalling 70 (or more). 70 words is not really a lot..... this post for instance has far, far more.

This feature is to:
a) Reward useful posts
b) Encourage you to make more useful posts
c) Cut down on useless 'link building' posts.

In addition, all users who do not link to Webforumz.com have the nofollow attribute in all their links to discourage people on link building crusades.

The above is as specified in our forum rules.

If you have any questions regarding any of the above, please feel free to comment.

Is that figure of 70 words still valild, or is the figure higher now? It seems that some longer posts aren't showing a signature ....

Re: Signatures are Google Ads

I dunno. Well i am gonna make a post with as many words as possible and i will see if my new signature appears. (That last sentence was 24 words). Now i know this is a pointless experiment but if i have 70 words then my sig should appear. (50). So now i only have 30 more words to go. Some may have a go at me, but hey! (70) words and no sig, so i will now try again. (80)_ and still no sig. I may try up to one hundred, so only 8 more words to go (ends)
