Signature permissions
In smf/elkarte we can set some permissions for signatures. Those permissions are set for all membergroups.
what do you think about the idea to set those permissions for membergroups?

UI-wise (i.e. how to present the admin interface for such feature) it would be a nightmare, because it would require a page for each member group, more or less like the boards permissions profiles.
Implementation-wise it wouldn't be too scary, though a little annoying I think, for example because of the usual problems associated to the decision: is the more strict that prevails or the more relaxed or should there be both options? (For example I can see both options: a group that has more relaxed limits because... dunno, maybe the more they post the more they are allowed to have "big" signatures, but also a group that has more restricted permissions because is a punitive one, maybe because the user misbehaved.)

I don't think it will be a nightmare for Ui, just a dropdown button. I attach an image for this
It will not be used to "punish" my members, but just to give more permissions to moderators.
Another alternative could be to include the signature permission to Membergroup permission. It is something I saw into XF (another screenshot)

I just noticed an user option to close (disable) individual member signature on another script. A simply x mark as in case of browser window at the right hand top of signature. Worth considering, I guess.

bump.
is there anyway for signature permissions based on post count? some hit and run member are posting message to place links, and dissappears after that.

It's a permission, no need to run maintenance tasks, but it won't touch what has already been changed (i.e. users with signature will keep their signatures, just not able to edit them).
In admin > config > features and options > signatures
disable the url and iurl tags.
