The current policy is: Politics is for Pungency, no politics in the other forums.
Signatures with political statements, slogans, links to news items, etc seem like a passive-aggressive way to get that information visible without technically violating the politics restriction.
So, Hulk smash!
Politics is in everything. Not to be PoMo about it but it is.
The administrators title is "this machine kills fascists" Pundits avatar is a proto-fascist, Bill the butcher.
The purpose, as I understand it, is to prevent topics from straying into the swamp of politics.
A "Passive-Agressive" political signature isn't going to drag a gaming thread into political discussion, so this is a rather pointless call to push greater censorship on people's self expression based on... lets call it mission creep of a forum rule.
I like the ones that update regularly to spin the current leftist angst. ;)
Most of us don't really look at the signatures...
More interested in what someone says than their signature spot.

Agreed. I just use mine to quote whoever my avatar may be at the time. I don't expect anyone to read it or care what it says.
