First names in your signatures
« on: March 05, 2019, 06:46:38 pm »
Hi all :)
Can I make a suggestion to everyone?

Could you please put your first name in your signature? It makes so much more personal when you can reply to someone and use their first name.
I know we all pretty much know everyone and most of us are already all friends, but there's a few new faces on the new forum.

Jim I agree it’s nice to know who you are communicating too and where they are from.

I have sent Gil a message about that. I believe he was fixing some other problems and may have accidentally taken away that option.

I think I'll be alright, but a good point Jim. As you say it does add a personal touch and helps to build on friendships. 😀

I used to run around with a guy that called somebody he just met by any name that popped into his head. "Steve this is Mark. Just met him. Hell of a nice guy."
Kept us laughing all the time. But we were usually drinkin'.
