I've noticed today that in threads, underneath the user details of a user who has posted, it shows my Sig. This only started today, and is very annoying (since it disrupts the layout of the whole page). Also it only happens with certain users.

I've looked into it, and found that it doesn't happen to those whose uesrgroup is anything below "Member". Junior Members don't get it, but Full Members and higher (including staff) have it.

Anything going on with the forums?
 
I haven't seen it yet, but I'll keep my eye out for it. Not sure what can be done, but if one of the admins finds out what it is, I'm sure they'll jump on it soon.
 
I believe this is because as your usergroup changes due to you posting more, you get more privileges, i.e. a signature, avatar, and such.

So the more posts you have, the more features you will be able to use on the forums.
 
The idea is to encourage you to make more meaningful posts. If you're going to contribute adequately to the forum and be a part of it, then you deserve to have such priviledges as signatures and other features. But if you're only going to be here for a short while, and make only one or two posts, it's not worth it having the other features.
 
Could you please show us a example? like a post where this is happening.

If so, someone else may be using your sig, but i am not sure.
