Hmm... I just noticed that my sig got deleted because it had ":moon:* " in it. 😕

Edit: Anyway, I put it back....

Not the smartest thing to do when a mod deleted it for a reason only to do it again 😛

Right before they deleted it they added another post clarifying how all pics in sigs were not allowed. The only reason that people are saying it was just animated gifs was because the Mod slipped up and said gif instead of pics when they meant everything. People were just trying to bend the interpretation.

Now, in all fairness, this isn't Oprah.com; it's Anandtech.com. We're all a bunch of computer geeks, or we wouldn't be here. There's a world of difference between GIFs and pics in general. There was no bending involved.

I'm going on the assumption that the Mod who deleted it mistook it for a linked image so nuked my sig. It has been in there for a week without problems, and Nik recently added something similar to his sig and they haven't done anything about that. I PMed the Mods asking about it, so if there really is a problem they will get back to me and I will remove it.

In the meantime I have to assume it was a mistake on their part. All sorts of people have smilies in their sigs, as well as highlighted text. Neither of those things are against the rules, nor is the text not allowed. (it has been there since I joined)
