  1. well alot of the time i have been here, i have seen alot of people commenting on a post, and this is an example

    "wow. sounds cool

    -MrSmiley99
    "
    and i think... what? we can see your name?
    People have trademarks, thet you know are alright, like hasorko or eclypsys But... coz they have things like

    Greetz Hazorko
    ~Eclipsys
    So i just dont get why others do it? I mean, there names ARE right to the left of their post.
    Please, someone enlighten me why? Thanks

    MrSmiley99 :p
  2. Agreed, I think it's stupid to "sign" your posts in forums where the originator of the post is clearly obvious, like in this one. If you absolutely feel like you HAVE to have a signature, well... put it in your freaking signature, lol! :p (That thing down there ↓ where people often put "achievements", in case you don't know what I'm talking about)
  3. Yeah I often wonder this myself. Just read a post where someone did this. I also see some where it's like "This is ________ " and they put their message.
  4. Hmm. I really don't get it. Just stupid! - S_R_L_B
    It had to be done xD

  5. I know. I think it's people just wanting to make sure their name is seen. It's completely pointless.

    Wish it would stop. :(

  8. Well, if I am writing a private conversation to someone on the forums, I normally finish it with my name (Just Hayley) cos it feels like an email :) But never when I'm posting on a thread. I love when people say "Can I please be unbanned? I didn't do this. My minecraft name is iGrief"
