    wow. Its a pointless rule, banning things that make you log out... it must take about 10-15 seconds to log back in. So you cant really say its a waste of time... you've spent more time reading this post then it would take to log back in.

    Poor You.

    You may think that the action is bad but it takes the same amount of time to log back in then to click the link

    Not such a big deal, You get to laugh at yourself for being dumb enough to click it and he can laugh at your reaction, Its all for fun [/b][/quote]
    hmm never thought of it like that.

    I've never had that problem, I just don't really click on people's sigs, and if I do I know what I'm clicking on first, lol. Now, if you accidentally click it, that happens sometimes, sure, but it's not really common enough to worry about. Just look at links in the lower-left hand corner of the browser and see where it goes before clicking. Annoying, yes, but it's more trouble than it's worth to edit a member's sig/post just because of a stupid link.

    I totally agree with Dan, and I did just waste time reading this topic, lol

    ^^ that's just my opinion

    Actually, I didin't know my password one time, that happened and it took me 30 minutes to log back in, even WITH the password recovery. Because I have like 20 email accounts and didn't know what one was on my account. So dan, in some cases, that is not the case.

    I think the ones that say like "good turoials here" and direct you to the sites that get them money for each click is a bigger problem then the logout links.Neither are that big of a deal but no need to make people waste time having to log in again or get tricked into makeing you money.
