I agree. Very tacky to have a BTC address in your sig. If someone was so damn impressed with your post that they just had to send you money, they'd let you know Cheesy

Plus, I've been curious if anyone ever HAS gotten a "tip" via an addy in their sig.

No

and I don't understand why Grin

I don't think we need a rule per se.

Oh good, because if we are going to have an actual rule it might as well be a doozy, with built in funding for enforcement, like maybe require all donation addresses to be special script-addresses from which funds can only be released by outputting a certain percentage to the forum police fund or something.

Yeah yeah, I know a hard rule wasn't even suggested, just echoing that.

I don't think we need a rule per se. But it might be good for people to mention how they perceive it in a place like this thread. Whenever people start using new technology it takes time for norms to develop.

When someone post an addy it makes me think that they either rate themselves very highly or are new and bitcoin broke and possibly regular broke too. The exception is when someone or something they've built is actually awesome and Armory/etotheipi comes to mind. I think that's the only sig addy I've given to in the last year.

How about a cultural consensus on a basic rule of dignity - do not broadcast your donate address.

I do not know... I felt this way every time a stranger enables me to pay him. Somehow it makes me feel that he need money and is poor. And by putting even a little effort to enable me to pay=help him is nudging me. I guess this is primordial and we should consciously honor it and not overuse it.

What do you think?
