Here’s an entertaining topic on signatures:

> [@Automated Signatures?](https://meta.discourse.org/t/automated-signatures/1127):
>
> @codinghorror has already PM’d me that THIS implementation of Discourse discourages manual signatures. But what about automated signatures, like we see on other forums? (the forum software draws a horizontal line below the post and prints the custom signature) Some folks don’t like them and in the userCP, they can be turned off. Here? I can’t find the option anywhere at all. Is it on the cards or only through plugins?

And one regarding post counts:

> [@Add last seen and post count to user card](https://meta.discourse.org/t/add-last-seen-and-post-count-to-user-card/16550):
>
> I think we should expand our user card to include post counts: [image] Additionally maybe consider adding a row for Last Seen - perhaps a separate feature req/ Thoughts?
