Because mine is just gone! :augh:

And I don't think it had anything offensive

It probably violated the new Signature Guidelines. Those were up for over a week before administration removed violating signatures. You should have received a PM with your signature in it. Just rewrite it so that it doesn't violate the new guidelines.

No, I didn't get any PM

But it says here that they can't be colored, and mine was... so that must be it...

Ah. If it was colored, then the removal of your signature had nothing to do with the new signature rules. We have just never allowed colored signatures. They're distracting and useless.

Marking this problem solved.

Sorry, I forgot to get to it since I was notified early in the morning (~2 am). But yes, it was dropped due to the notorious usage of colors — a long series of colored blocks isn't exactly subtle.
