It's about time we got a new thread, V.9 was getting awful crowded. So, I went ahead and made a new one. If there's any problems with this, go ahead and PM me so I can get the topic deleted, etc.
V.9 can be found here.Introducing...
The Mini-Mods and the Strike System! These three users here are almost like co-owners of the thread. Just like me, they watch over it and take care of it. Any of them, and me, can apply strikes.

We shall dub them the Signature Squad. Coincidentally, I picked 3 users with 's' names, and didn't even realize until I began typing this here. xD
And of course, we have the dreaded strike system.
First time you break any rule: Mini-Mod PMs me a quote of your post, and the rule you broke. The mini-mod will also PM you that you have received a strike. No punishment, this serves as a warning.
Second time you break the same rule: Temporary ban. Mini-mod PMs me with a quote of the post, and I PM you saying that you cannot participate for a week.
Third time you break the same rule: Depends on the severity of the situation. Mini-mod PMs me, we work it out from there.

Nobody yet, let's keep it that way! This, my friend, is Signature Respect! The forum game where you can show off your own signature by complimenting others.It easy! Just compliment or critique the user above you's signature!Yes, of course!
1. Be respectful! Don't be rude or mean to anyone else on this thread.
2. 8 words or more, please. (That means no "Oh, it's cool")
3. Don't double post and rate yourself.
4. Don't advertise, unless it's in your signature.
5. If you're going to critique somebody's signature, do it nicely.
What would be considered a "good" post?
It's pretty simple, actually.✗
This is minimal effort, and basically saying "I could care less about your signature, now compliment mine." Nobody likes to see this. :(

Ugh, the way those pictures go together looks terrible!
Nobody wants to hear how much their signature is hated, in any form. This should be a no-brainer.

Cool signature, now come do this!!! <link to something else>
Advertising. It's annoying, and more or less spam. If you link to some other thing in any way, or tell people to join something, that's advertising.

I love the colors, and they go together really well with that quote!
If you really don't know what to say, anything along the lines of "I like it because...", or "I love it because..." is perfect! Of course, you don't have to do exactly this, have fun with it! People want to know what you really like about it, not just some robot-sounding phrase. ;)
