New policy for the DISBOARDS regarding religion/politics

[SueM in MN]

There is a new policy on the DISBOARDS regarding threads, signatures and comments. Please check out this thread by WebmasterKathy that describes the change.

I like the policy changes and also the clarifications on the Guidelines of prior problem areas.

Very smart move on the part of the DIS!

I like this too! One clarification question--Kathy's post indicates that political messages in signatures are prohibited--how about religious messages?

From the guideline link:

12. SIGNATURES:

Your signature will be limited in length. Our forum software will do this automatically and anything over the allowed length will be cut off
You will be limited to a total of 25 images and "smilies" The forum software will handle this automatically
All content and links must meet DIS board posting guidelines. Signatures have the same content rules as any post on the boards. We reserve the right to remove or modify signatures that cause issues with the boards or slow page loading. Please make sure any images in your signature are hosted on a reliable site. Any signature that contains malicious or harmful code will be removed immediately and the poster
sanctioned.

I bolded the part that answers your question.

Why oh why am I now tempted to put obscure religious and political references in my signature......

go for it. as the WM on the CB stated, you can put holiday icons and things of that nature in your signature. I think what they are going for is a family friendly DIS again. IMHO
