I've been wishing for a feature like that for some time :-) I almost never use a sig, cause I post casually far more often than I do as a representative of a group or org.

If it's not convenient for them to store more than x lines, they won't. So that will deter abuse as it is. -Tim (21 years ago, 30-May-03, to lugnet.admin.suggestions)
