Should Edge remove his sig?

- I have yet to see massive public outcry about his signature, or anyone else's for that matter.

More reasons coming after I get some sleep... if I can be bothered looking at this thread again that is.

I see it as rather impolite to make a thread about this subject without first going to Edge about it in a private message.
It makes you look rather two-faced when you start linking net ettiquette (netiquette) standards after failing to take up the subject with Edge in private.
As for posting netiquette links, the fact that it's in a post halfway through the thread instead of your first post makes it look very much like you just googled it as a complete afterthought and may not actually care about it anyway.

ROFL.

1) I know Edge pretty well, thank you. He even gave me good karma for the thread so .
2) Googling netiquette, hahaha. I have been network admins as a part-time job during my studies for years in the past, I have ran game servers and IRC networks as hobbies, and my first "Web" session dates back to 92 when I was 9. I grown with the first-gen Web. Trust me, I've known the net etiquette since it was first created. You see, there was a time when people were actually told about it. It's not like you could post to usenet without knowing it (or be flamed) anyway.
