Come on, we are not in the days of 56k connections and having the rules on sig file size is just silly.
90% of people should have broadband now so increase it!
thankskbye

I know people who still have 56k. Besides that, the rule is not only there to make life easier for people on 56k, but also to keep the forum "readable". I don`t want to see half a page of sig for a 3 line text.

I mean change the rules on the size of file not the actual dimensions of the sig (That should stay as it is) We are in the day where 200K aint that much in the scheme of things......

Or even with 12 posts per page on 56k, 12*200k = 2400k
2400k @ 5k/s = 8 minutes
