Thes Tag Lines Are Driving Me Crazy (VAnity)

Posted on 01/09/2003 5:56:00 AM PST by Puddleglum

The new "taglines" after people's usernames are really distracting to me. Is it the intense pressure to think up something too cute? Is it the odd little eye-pulling font that makes it less comfortable to read the article? I can't say for sure. It just doesn't seem to detract from the message board format, at least for me. Does anyone else think so? I love FR but find this new tagline thing a little annoying. Maybe Jim could give us the option to view or not view taglines as part of our user preferences.

Damn ...I can't believe I never noticed that. I'm too observant by half.

Not near as irritating as the childish "barf alert" or the "hold muh..." alerts.

"Puddleglum's my name. But it doesn't matter if you forget it. I can always tell you again."

Perhaps a good use for your tag line.

Then you can be known as...Puddleglum (Puddleglum)

There were always taglines till they dispeared a while back in a software update. A lot of us have been pretty militant about wanting them back. If you don't like them, don't read them.

I like the taglines. I missed them. Back in the "Good ol' days", one could add them in the email address field.
