Spamming Social Media Links

#1 Post by Trucker_71 » 09 Aug 2022 11:15

I'd like to suggest a thread especially for those that feel the need to spam a scrawny little banner sized image in the "Show your truck" thread, in both ATS and ETS2... every day in both threads for the purpose of displaying a half dozen social media links! :roll:

@xXCARL1992Xx
I don't care what people write in their signature, my problem is the cheezy way they're spamming the thread(s) "every day!" in both ATS and ETS2 with images smaller than your banner. Their social media links are the focus and take up more room than the image. If it was once in a while it wouldn't bother me, but this is daily in both threads. :roll:
There should be a thread dedicated for those that want to advertise their Youtubes & such. 8-)

then disable the signature, this is exactly what the option is for, there is nobody that post anything other the truck images, everything after the black line is auto Inserted into the post by the forum to what the user has set it to in his/her control panel, i dont see a single social media link in the post other then the signature itself

As Carl said, the links are part of the user signatures. If you don't wish to see them, you can turn them off by going to User Control Panel > Board preferences > Edit display options. There is an option to toggle between yes or no for displaying signatures.

Shouldn't be allowed to advertise youtube channels in such a cheezy manner.
