It's in User Control Panel > Board preferences > Edit display options > Display signatures ... turn it to "No" instead of "Yes"
or direct link: ucp.php?i=prefs&mode=view

It shouldn't be too hard to do (right?). Just make sure you require a client id and secret, and only expose the username. Maybe also require users to click yes to approve the login, I guess that could depend on the client

Seriously, isn’t it time we found a new forum software instead. The modern platforms all have decent plugin systems, in which an OAuth service plugin either already exists or is more easily implemented.

It shows topic in which you have commented.
If you want to turn off subscriptions, go to User Control Panel and then, under the Overview tab click on Manage Subscriptions in the left column.

Typing an url would also be easier (I use the qwertz keyboard mapping).

• It’s easy: the syntax is so simple you can barely call it “syntax.” If you can use an emoticon, you can write Markdown.
• It’s fast: the simple formatting saves asignificant amount of time over hand-crafted HTML tags, and is often faster than using aword processor or WYSIWYG editor. It speeds up the workflows of writers of all ilk, from bloggers to novelists.
• It’s clean: Markdown translates quickly to perfectly formed HTML: no missing closing tags, no improperly nested tags, no blocks left without containers. You also get 100% less cruft than exporting HTML from Microsoft Word. There’s no styling inline, nothing that will otherwise break asite’s design or mess with the XSLT formatting for PDF output. In short, it’s foolproof.
• It’s portable: your documents are cross-platform by nature. You can edit them in any text-capable application on any operating system. Transporting files requires no zipping or archiving, and the filesize is as small as it can possibly get.
• It’s flexible: output your documents to awide array of formats. Convert to HTML for posting on the web, rich text for sending emails or importing into alayout program for final arrangement or any number of other proprietary formats.
• It fits any workflow: You can make Markdown work with any workflow. It can speed up just about any writing-related process with very little setup. It can also be scripted all to hell, if you want, because plain text is the most flexible of any format known to computer-kind.
