When I click the "Update my signature" button, the page doesn't load and it says "ERR_CONTENT_DECODING_FAILED" (Chrome) I'm not sure if it's right to post it here but I really want to change my signature T_T |

Can you try using another browser to update your signature and see if it works? The forums has code in place to check for Russian and other irregular characters in signature in a desperate attempt to fight spambots. Please let me know, thanks! |

According to Google, this error code happen when the HTTP request's header claim the content is gzip encoded when it isn't. This forums is gzip encoded, so I don't see how that error even shows up. Have you updated to the latest version of Chrome? Are you running any type of pagespeed boost add-on or something? |

BUT now I tried with a different text on my signature and I didn't have any problem. So the problem was related to what I was trying to put/write instead of a system (?) issue. Thanks anyways, and sorry if I wasted your time (anyways I think it's a weird problem xD) |

But can you copy and paste what you wanted to put in your signature before? I think the key is in that. There might be a weird character somewhere hidden, maybe like one of those whitespace character. It's possible. |

The question mark after .png caused the forums to think you are trying to do some sort of script injection. If you get rid of the ?t=1407687873 it should work fine. Let me try...
