Thread:Help talk:Signatures/signature dislike?

In the section "Customized Signatures", what is meant by "Please note that striking signatures are often disliked by other users."?

To me the word 'striking' has a meaning something like 'you would take special notice of' as in "The CEO was a strikingly handsome man." Are 'other users' jealous of the beauty of the 'striking signature'? Or is 'striking' intended to convey 'gaudy, garish, overdone'?

I don't have experience with the likes/dislikes of 'other users' to know what is unacceptable in a signature. Perhaps this could be expanded upon?
