Well, I believe now is the time to apologize for this whole mess I have caused with the signatures. I am sincerely sorry for all of this. I got very hot-headed, as many things have been adding up as of late, especially with school. I felt my signature stated my opinions well, and communicated my views of the Intellistar. I thought I had already edited it enough, but apparently not. I began an argument I should not have, and I became a target with the situation. This is NOT how I wanted everyone on the forums here to get to know me. I appeared selfish and stubborn, and again, that is not how I wanted to come off.

All I want is to be able to get to know people here on the forums (and on youtube), and that has not been going well. I feel that I can't interact with anyone, and anything I say on these forums gets disagreed with or mocked. I just want to be able to get to know users here. I acted like an immature child, pushing myself further away from this. Please consider my apology and I am willing to meet anyone halfway with all of this. I am working on a new signature with some help that fits guidelines.

It's all right, Aaron.  B) We're glad that you understand that these rules and guidelines are set to only improve the forums from too much clutter.

The rules are not to hurt or bring down any one person but to keep things in check. I wasn't happy at how signatures were managed. Aaron feel free to put up a signature. You have 700 characters which I think is quite enough :yes: You dont have to remove it completely

I noticed the 7 line limit is still in effect, though. Is there still supposed to be a line limit in addition to a character limit?

Yes. IIRC, the line limit was put into effect several days ago.

You did a fine job Gary :P :rofl:

Yes current limits for signatures are 700 characters and 7 lines. I think everything looks good at that.  :yes:

Maybe I'm missing something here, but I don't see any signatures (including mine). :no:

Some site pages and content will be unavailable for a short period of time over the next few days as I reorganize, repair, and make new pages for the site

After I make some repairs and add new pages I will be creating a thread for people to report broken link and errors they may have on the site so its all together.

Tropical content, including tropical openers, updates, topical storm coverage, and hurricane coverage will now have its own section
