Hi PM,

 

Currently, all the moderators have either exactly or something similar to this as their community signatures that get added to every posting:

 

* Please do not post private info such as: phone number, account number, pin etc.. This is a public forum.

 

This is great, but I'd like to see a standardized signature that also includes instructions on how to send them a private message.  For example, please see the italic text at the bottom of all of my community messages (probably including this one--unless the Lab doesn't show them?  I forget).

 

I think this will increase likelihood of people actually sending their private info via private message instead of just replying.  We see this happen from time to time, including a recent example today.

Update: yes it seems the lab doesn't show signatures, but look at any of my postings in the community for examples.

 

Here's the recent issue I was mentioning, also:  http://productioncommunity.publicmobile.ca/t5/Announcements/Update-on-support/m-p/139352/highlight/t...

Seems like Oracles signature looks better than mods. Also add <hr> tad to add a line in between post and signature.

@NDesai yeah that's true too, ideally they would be formatted a little better eh?  But content first, then worry about formatting. 😉

Good idea, @srlawren. I shall finally sit down this evening to make my signature and copy you 2 somewhat. Oracles should have a consistent signature too 😉 I have been meaning to do this for a long time.

Please stop using tiny fonts.... the normal font is hard enough to read.  Italics also don't help.

 

From a readability view, the italics change the font enough to be confusing for low vision readers.

 

Note, I'm not sure who's signature I've seen the italics in, but I have seen it.

@stonechucker oh I never considered that, my apologies.  I did that to make the signature stand out from the main posting, but I didn't consider that it might have a negative impact. I'll update it.

Why cannot you read tiny font... need glasses old timer (... I am a 4 eyed monster :P)

 

This font is not small enough!!

@Chaos_Scorpio I know you were trying to be funny, but @stonechucker has a visual impairment that they have mentioned several times in the past. Could you please edit your response, as it is pretty insensitive.

It's a tough world out there, but I've got thick skin.  I can handle the razzing.  I do appreciate your support @srlawren, both for the response to Chaos_Scorpio, and for acknowledging you're support to make things more accessible.

 

It's difficult to get these small things (no pun intended) across to those who do not understand a world that isn't normal.

 

I did (I think) bravo this, however if I haven't yet, I meant to last night, and it will be corrected 🙂
