I'm sure this has been covered before, but have you all considered a signature line or character minimum?

Maybe it's just me but 5+ lines is distracting/annoying

Do you mean maximum?

There is a maximum but it's characters and not lines.
It would be difficult to restrict the # of lines.

There are a couple people that have done annoying stuff like this in the past, listing all their cars:
60 Ragtop
61 Ragtop
61 Hardtop
62 Ragtop
63 Hardtop
63 Ragtop
64 Hardtop
65 Sunroof
70 Convertible
73 Super
78 Triple White Convertible


If someone notifies me of this sort of thing, I typically ask that person to collapse it into less overall lines.

I dig it when they list five cars and only one is a vw. I think signature should be reserved for your name or catchy little comments like the one in mine!

I like it when they list every car they ever owned.

You know you can go into the control panel and shut them off, right? One click and you'll never see a signature line again.
