Why is "Elmer Hurlstone" in YOUR Sig File?

Elmer Hurlstone .... If you are new

Elmer Hurlstone LOOK! Amazing NEW

Elmer Hurlstone, I had NOTHING Left

These are the direct quotations of the beginning of the first line in the signatures of three separate Warriors.

At first I suspected clairvoyance but soon discovered that was not the case.

I checked on a couple threads without signing in and determined my name had been changed to "unregistered". I started looking for INS and black helicopters.

Initially it was effective; it caught my attention. Not all sigs do.

Not sure if it has legs. If "everybody knows my name" I might as well go to Cheers and have a beer with Norm and Cliff.

So—how is this done? Inquiring minds want to know.

Allen Graves · 10-12-2009, 08:16 PM

I saw that too, Elmer.

It caught my attention the first couple of times, but now I am just going to ignore it because both of them were something I had absolutely no interest in.

Allen

Johnny Slater · 10-12-2009, 08:17 PM

It's the "you" tag that Allen turned on a while back. At first it was overused and put in every WSO title so it was turned back off for a while then turned back on.

fghaegele · 10-12-2009, 08:17 PM

How bizarre.

Tsnyder · 10-12-2009, 08:18 PM

Hey, Elmer... I just asked that question in another thread.

The response I received was to insert [ YOU ] (without the spaces)
in the sig code. I right clicked to view the page source code but
didn't see that.

Let me try it on my sig... you tell me if you see your name!

Tsnyder

Steven Wagenheim · 10-12-2009, 08:18 PM

Elmer it's the old [ YOU ] code that was removed from the forum threads
and posts but still works in sig files.

Personally, I'm immune to it.

Some people like it, some people hate it.

As with everything else in life.

Tsnyder · 10-12-2009, 08:19 PM

Okay... is your name showing up in my sig?

Tsnyder

Tsnyder · 10-12-2009, 08:20 PM

Damn... all I see now is the tag... lol

Yeah, it's working

Allen Graves · 10-12-2009, 08:21 PM

I see my name there, T

Tsnyder · 10-12-2009, 08:21 PM

Ahh... there it is... lol... mystery solved!

Tsnyder

KenStrong · 10-12-2009, 08:22 PM

Hey, get out of my sig, Elmer Hurlstone! Mind your own stinkin' business!

Elmer Hurlstone · 10-12-2009, 08:23 PM

Yep, there I be!

Man, do I get around, or what?

My folks would have been so proud...

Thanks to all who've answered the question.

Charann Miller · 10-12-2009, 08:23 PM

I was wondering why I could still it in peoples signatures but not in the WSO section.

It's kinda funny, there were a whole bunch of posts with people asking why their names were in people's sigs, with the reply from the next poster stating something along the lines of "no, you mean MY name is", classic.

Tsnyder · 10-12-2009, 08:24 PM

Well... that was fun. I think it would be best used sparingly
though so out it goes!

Tsnyder

Elmer Hurlstone · 10-12-2009, 08:29 PM

Somehow I missed that whole thing, Charann.

Must have been the week I slept.

Ken Strong,

I'm semi-omnipotent; if I wish to get in your sig, I will. Fortunately I don't wish to.

Elmer, I'm sorry to hear that. I'll forward you some Spam emails I got that promise to fix that problem.

Kevin Williams · 10-12-2009, 08:35 PM

Hey, I'm in the same boat. I didn't know what the heck was going on when I was seeing spire8989 in sigs... xD

I got them too, Ken. Save your money! They don't work.

Michael Mayo · 10-12-2009, 08:54 PM

Elmer,

I'm Sorry.

I thought you would like to see your name here on the WF.
Here is my old sig that I have now deleted.

Quote:

Elmer Hurlstone, You Need This,
Elmer Hurlstone, You Want This,
Elmer Hurlstone, You Have to Have This,
Elmer Hurlstone, Get This Now!
Come on Elmer Hurlstone, You Know You Want It!

Hope there are no hard feelings.
Or was you mad because I didn't give you any of the links?

Have a great Day Elmer Hurlstone,
Michael

PS. Elmer Hurlstone, Really, I'm sorry if you were offended by my Signature.

Elmer Hurlstone · 10-12-2009, 09:03 PM

Michael,

Thank you! You've made my day.

Four times in one signature? That may be a new WF record!

As surprising as it may seem I've actually seen my name in the Warrior Forum prior to today.

Elmer

Elmer Hurlstone you need proper coffee and then it won't be a problem

But ya gotta admit ... "Elmer Hurlstone" is a cool name ...

Thanks Eric,

After 63 years I'm getting used to it.

It seemed to be the cause of a few fights in Jr. High school.

Ken,

Quote:

You're right. I knew in 1946 that some day I'd be online and need a unique handle.

Even then I had the seeds of salesmanship in me. With great, extremely persuasive, bellowing I convinced my folks to hang this moniker on me.

I knew a kid in highschool whose last name was Firehammer. He didn't look the part, though.
