Vote on your favorite style of this new feature I will be implementing sometime in the next few days.
This is to display people's in-game information such as: main char's username, server, guild name, character race, primary channel, and total level.
Each piece of info is optional, and will be editable from your settings. If option 1 or 2 is the winner you will also be able to turn it on or off for your own posts, and in the near future you will be able to select which game you want the info to display for (mabi, vindictus, or mabi2 farther down the line).
This vote is for you all to decide how to display this information. Images bellow to illustrate the placement of the info:
Option 1 - Right above signature:

Option 2 - Right above your post:

Option 3 - Shove it all under my avatar!

Note that with option 3 there will be less control over turning it on or off and selecting which game to display. Mainly because the "bellow avatar" area is already quite crowded.
Also note that choosing 1 or 2 will result in server/char name being moved from under the avatar and into whichever spot wins.

1. Or 3.
But it depends on what it looks like for 3.

3 will look like a wall-o-text bellow your avatar if you fill out everything.
Where you see my char and server, just imagine a new line for each piece of info: char, server, channel, race & guild.

What about Option 1, but to the bottom right of the sig instead? Out of the way, but still readable.

Doing that would make different people's info appear at different places based on sig size. It won't look uniform across the whole site and therefore not too pleasant. Same reason why I'm not putting an option for people to be able to pick where to put it on an individual basis (which led to this vote).

I like options 1 and 3, but if I had to chose, I'd say 1.

OOC: Option 2. That's the way MabinogiPlayer used to do it, and I personally liked it quite a bit.

First option. Don't need to have all that information shoved under the already cluttered (if they have alot of pets/badges) section on the left of the post, and having your information appearing that the top of every post sounds and looks stupid in my opinion. That leaves the first option.

I like option 3, it'll use up the large empty space whenever we post. That way the large empty space will have something in life, and not be a big empty large space with nothing to look forward to. :3

Can there be a option where the user decides how they want to see it? Like in settings choose display 1,2 or 3. Another example would be like back on Guru where you could choose the forum color (For yourself) wheter you wanted it to be the defaulted green, or the old blue o3o.
