What do you think?
Personally, I'm not in favor of "moderating" signature/bio lines nor amending the TOS to set boundaries for same. I think the existing TOS is adequate to deal with offensive lines.
Furthermore, it was apparently a case of stalking which led to Randy's decision to temporarily take down that feature. Deal with the stalkers and, for all intents and purposes, the case is closed, right?
I also happen to think that his reference to the upcoming election was a way of acknowledging that passions are going to be running high, and the potential is just too great that the lines would be disrupting the FT experience for too many people.
Over and out.
