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.

I think you're right. It's gonna rank up there with the classic:

How many Freepers does it take to change a lightbulb?

Closely followed by the AYBABTU Threads along with the Cheese and Moose Threads

(Oh Heck! I almost forgot the "Please Ignore This Thread", Thread. LOL)

Due to my highly successful taging I am looking to expand. Therefore, I'm inquiring about renting your tag space. Please forward your rates.

Thanks in advance for your time.

Sincerely

Balata

LOL! You're my second customer in two days! MeeknMing was the first. Business certainly hasn't been good. As I told MeeknMing, I'll take whatever I can get at this point....
Make me an offer

Weren't the 'tag lines' in those 'olden days', where one could put their e-mail addy?
