I noticed something on another board I go to that struck me as a nice way to maybe save a little stress on the server and to make long threads a bit easier to read. On this other board, a person's signature is only shown once per page, even if they post 3-4 times on a page. I wonder if such a thing would be something to look into here, esp. with the option to view a large number of posts per page, it might cut down a little bit on server traffic.

Just a thought to throw out there.
This is only a "problem" for registered users who aren't in dialup mode, so I'll probably take a pass on implementing anything like this.
(On a tangent, I can think of about a dozen people who should probably change their signature because all they're doing is punishing registered users who aren't in dialup mode)

Speaking of being WOTD and completely off topic; I've been here close to three years now and I STILL haven't been 'randomly' chosen yet. What's a guy gotta do around here to make this happen?

I feel left out...
You current have a 1 in 2643 chance, give or take. Three years is ONLY 1095 days, give or take. That's not even a 50-50 chance.
I haven't hit the Powerball either, but you don't see ME complaining. (until now)
