Sig removed for fictional warez? What?

I'm sure most of you saw my sig recently, Wario's Warez. Well as you can see it got deleted, and I don't really see why. I mean I know it had the word warez, but it didn't have any links, or references to real sites or anything. Besides just about everyone on the community of HM knows who Wario is and that he would never run a warez site (maybe :twisted: ) and yet it got deleted. Again, it had no references to real warez download locations or anything. I feel this is unfair.

It makes HaloMods look bad, if someone was just browsing our website and saw a signature that had a huge "warez" sign on it, well that wouldn't look too good, and it certainly wouldn't give HaloMods a very good reputation.

Dang it. Would it help if I added a clearly noticeable label on the sig that says "this is a joke" or something like that? People told me they thought the thing was funny.

No sig discussing warez, joke or not. Doesn't matter. Don't do it.

hmm I remember when something like this happened, when crackcocaine was complaining his sig got removed and then he spammed the forums.

But He had the right to post his signature, it wasnt breaking any rules on this forum at all. But the total spammage thing wasnt right.
I had to say spammage

The bottom line is warez discussion or even mentionings of it aren't allowed on halomods whether they are fake or not even if it says "oh jk". It makes halomods look like they support it.

Doesn't matter, sig was removed whether it was a fictional reference or not. The end.

Wrong. Standard rules apply to signatures as well. Just because you're not talking about it in a post doesn't mean it's allowed. There is a rule against drug related discussion. Last I checked, marijuana was a drug.

If he had a legitimate argument to make, he should have made it in a civilized manner. Instead, he just kept putting the signature back up to deliberately disobey the staff and the rules. His fault.
