Using status and/or sig as a "statement"

[Nifft]

Morrus/mods, can we consider politely asking users who don't agree with some of the changes happening to ENW to *not* use status or signatures to make that point?

I'm thinking in particular of things like "<user> doesn't like this social networking crap" and "<user> would rather be able to edit his sig" and so-on.

As someone whose entire sig -- both explicitly and implicitly -- is dedicated to spreading a specific message regarding sigs, I humbly suggest you put something in your status which (explicitly or implicitly) encourages their use in accordance with your vision.

Cheers, -- N

Well..

Free speech isn't an issue until I become the USA Congress and being passing laws within the USA. Since I'm not the USA Congress, nor am I passing laws within the USA, it's not really relevant.

That said - I'm OK with it as long is it isn't obnoxious or insulting. I'm on the border with Stream's use of the world "crap" (I'd rather he used "rubbish" or something) but other than that he's welcome to express his opinion.

I can accommodate you there.

I just don't see why anyone wants to know what the hell I'm doing. I like my privacy.

I like your privacy too, IYKWIM.

Some might, some might not. But we plan to make it a toggle on/off. It's not invading your privacy because it's unable to obtain information about your life which you don't choose to enter yourself.

lol @ revised status.

Personally, I don't particularly care so long as no one is taking cheap shots at other people.

Ditto. Not than anyone really cares about my opinion on this matter.

If one's hat of status has no limit, one can always just enter a period and be done with it.

See?

(Of course, I don't care about status, so I guess my hat does have a limit.)
