Actually, whats under the spoiler does not count, it’s the spoiler itself, for example:

I love you
You are cool
Cool people like you
13467166

Is 4 lines

But this:
I love you
You are cool
Cool people like you
13467166


Is 1.5 lines

Okay. Thanks for clarifying.

Empty lines also count. You are at around 9 or 10.

Your forum sig is NOW compliant, because I edited it. It wasn't before. You had an {align=Center} on every line. That adds a blank line at the end, and you had other extra blank lines from putting the horizontal rule on a separate line:

First line


Fourth line

versus:

First line
third line

Code: Select all
First line
[hr][/hr]
Fourth line

[color=#BF0000][i]versus:[/i][/color]

It is less than the 8-line limit for visible lines.

I think so. It looks like 2 lines to me.

Well, I think it's 2.5 lines. If I remember, the Spoiler Box = 1.5 lines.

Question: I’d like to update my sig to include political beliefs (i know, so original)

My question is whether or not I am allowed to state “Russia is a Terrorist Nation” in my sig? Or would that be considered trolling towards the ethnic group and not the nation

The European Parliament designated Russia as a state sponsor of terrorism in response to their invasion of Ukraine, if that adds any legitimacy

Technically, it is legal, from what I can see.
Personally, it's nice, could add some colors (but not too light that you can't read it) or etc. but it's good for now.

Two things:
1. Your signature looks to be every so slightly over the limit, since I believe spoilers count as 1.5 lines. I'm counting 8.5, which exceeds the eight-line limit.
2. If you want to err on the side of caution, I'd suggest saying, "the Russian government is _____." That way, you minimize any possible misinterpretations and clearly criticize the government, not the people.

Alrighty, thank you. Didn’t know spoilers count as a separate line. Out of curiosity, does the fourth line of my sig show up as one or two lines on a computer screen (I am typing this on an iPhone)?

"Slava... Group" appear on the same line.
I'm now counting 7.5 lines, on desk-top. You should be all right now.
