Like when are we getting forum signature images back, and what about NPC corp forums? My CEO is an NPC and won't turn them on.

I remember back in the day when people used to have signatures from killboards. And the one guy that had the anime sigs that changed per thread - those were pretty awesome. On that note though, I have to ask when I'm getting the "ignore thread" and "ignore threads by this user" button? Those seem like they'd be especially useful lately...

HTML markup showing up? Last time I tried to use bolded letters, they didn't show up on EVE mail at all :D

I agree with the OP, enough of this Mittani thing already.

Not sure about sig images, while they are cool, not having them makes the forums look quite neat & tidy.

Yeah, NPC corp forums could be good, NPC corps are meant for new players to get to know the game and get some basic skills before starting EVE for real - maybe exchanging info in forum format could help people.

It would be another great way for new players to have one more place to find help. A lot of old timers hang out in corp chat and like to help out and they could do so in a more permanent way with the NPC corp forums. I know we have like new player help and the trial account forums but this is just one more option which doesn't hurt.

The most pressing issue is restricting NPC corp members from Posting or liking. There are too many brave forum alts, we can't take this much heroism.

What about the people who professionally play in an NPC corp..... I'm an alt, i'll own up to that. But we have had at least one CSM member who had a pure NPC (Gal Fed) corp history for his main character.

Also TEST damnit.... making us talk too dangerously close to the mittens issue! Twisted

Soon Mittens will be removed from CSM just like the Queen of Spoons and we can go on with the game!

I'm slightly insulted, only because IF I was a goon alt I would of somehow stuck in an image of me doing vaguely sexual things to Mitten's avatar.

Now that is something I'm strongly against- NPC corps need to be fixed so that this is impossible. At least boot the NPC-forevers to a different NPC corp, to protect the new players from their influence.

That corp should also be wardeccable- great place for those who like 23/7 hisec pvp Twisted

I'm actually not opposed to this, partially. If you don't wan to leave the NPC corp you shouldn't have too. Although they should be war deccable and anyone in hte NPC corp over... say 4-5 months old? should be eligible for the war dec.

I have nothing for contempt for such players, they do not deserve the honour of posting on the Eve-O forums.

It's not HTML markup, but characters encoding, quotes and stuff being encoded differently in the client and the web server perhaps.
The ignore thread options would surely be win, want!!
Sig images, I wonder, I'm not really tempted to see the forums look like a warez site with popups and banners all over the place, it's sleek and clean now.
I'd rather see the external link warning removed first, it's annoying as ****, or at least an option like "Yeah, I know I'll be redirected on the Wide Wild Web, but I'm educated enough to know what I'm doing, so shut up".
