Eff'nhell, National...

you are confusing post content with the users signature

So signatures can be links to businesses or political parties?

Based on the extremely vivid description of events I would hazard a guess Mr Uffindell knows exactly who the accuser is...

He will know who she is sure but we dont.  Shouldnt the details of her story be as open to scutiny for fairness?

1. Within reason... 

As I see it, the signature area is for you to sign off your posts in a personalised way.  It should reflect who you are, your identity so to speak.  @harm_less is a business owner and that is very much a part of his identity. I have no issues with the link to his own website (and I assume nzoomed doesn't either since it was there well before I joined) as it tells other users something about @harm_less.  

Now my signature is another level above, it tells you something about me, there are referral links to other websites, obviously I like a bargain and freebies...  I don't really consider that advertising, just a vain hope of a small pecuniary gain...

If you want to put a link to say National Party or https://www.national.org.nz/ in your signature then I have no real problem with it , it's a statement about who you are.  But, there is a line where one should not cross though...  If you were to use VOTE GREENS for example, that would no longer be a statement about who you are, but an endorsement or advert.

2.  No we probably shouldn't shove the victim out into the limelight so they may be accosted/trolled or otherwise by a certain demographic... Perhaps lets just wait until it is necessary, for example if Mr U violently (excuse the pun) refutes the allegations
