The un-destroyance of sig fads
It turns out Glitchy81 doesn't have the authority to make decisions for everyone else. Guess what? There still are sig fads. Here is a list:
- Armies, which are groups of sprites that follow a certain theme
- "Stop 1337", the newest fad, which is against 1337-Speak.
Things that may or may not be considered fads:
- Eggs, which encourage people to make more posts to find out what their eggs hatch into.
- Userbars, which are supposed to express the user's likes and dislikes, but pretty much show how everyone thinks the same way.
Things that are kinda sig fads:
- Naruto, the most overrated thing to come into existance since Mew Itself. Contarary to popular belief Naruto is not a ninja; he does not lurk around stealthily to assassinate his foes, and would not stand a chance against the scurviest Cabin Boy. Naruto is most commonly associated with depressed people. Perhaps there is a connection between Narutardation and depression. Naruto usually appears in the sigs of people who post and/or like depressing poetry.
Dead sig fads:
- Weapons, which had something to do with the armies
- Ninja Text, which everyone found annoying
- Kevan Brain links, which were disguised as helpful links (eg. "Diamond and Pearl sprites") but lead to a page saying "Your brain was eaten". Brainblocker helped reduce the amount of these links, however (as always) G-Mew fought for the right to disguise bad links as helpful links.
Members Leaving
A common occurance is for a member to leave for a while, prompting members to post banners in their sigs. This happened with G-Mew, who was predicted by Abwayax to come back (she did), and she even posted banners she made herself for people to use in their sigs. Another member, Darkness_LordII, also left at the same time, but no one noticed him because G-Mew was more in the in crowd.
"Anti-Sig Fad" as a sig fad
Some people like to say that it is ironic that the anti-fad movement became a fad on its own. This was not Abwayax's fault.
Some other people don't think anti-fad is a fad unless everyone is using the same image or phrase. These people think that calling anti-fad a fad is like calling text a fad. In other words: It's not a fad.
