    Default User titles

    Hi all,

    After some internal discussion, we have decided that user titles are subject to the same rules as sig lines. So please don't put political messages or statements in your user title.

    I have no objection to this, and think that it makes perfect sense, but I had not even noticed that it had become an issue.

    Makes perfect sense to me. Hopefully this is fair warning and not because people can't figure this out on their own.

    Clearly the rule would not have come up if people could figure it out on their own.

    As is often the case, we never explicitly put it in the rules because it's one of those things that should be obvious. And then someone didn't think it was obvious. And took it badly.

    The thing is, your user title is like a sig line. It is visible everywhere in the forum. Political statements have no place in the general forum.
