Weren't you directed to the other thread twice?

...Here.

If it's from the anime and part of the costume, it should be fine-- but it has to be actually RELATED in that way. I don't mean a sign that says something in character. I mean... RELATED as in, actually IN the series and USED in the series by the character you're cosplaying.

And if it's a normal sign... it wouldn't make a difference if it was on your shirt. That shouldn't even be even thought of as a loop-hole around "Signs are banned." Period. If it's print on your shirt, it's probably okay-- like, manufactured. If you WROTE it on your shirt, then you're getting a *facepalm* from staff and patrons against signs in the first place by trying SO HARD to find a loop-hole around something people were trying to get rid of. Stop. Signs are banned. No means no.

I'm tempted to beat somebody with a sign if I see one.  However, I think it's best to let security/con-ops handle the issue.

best way to deal with these sign people is to ignore them if you dont like them. "my sign isnt working anymore.. it broked?" if you dont give them the attention they want, they'll either get bored and stop or they'll cause an issue that'll bring in ConOps or security to deal with them. if people begin to star problems with them, they'll probably be asked to either remove their signs or remove themselves.

You have to be careful here because then it can be considered prostitution. I THINK. Not 100% sure, but depending on how you phrase it you might get your sign removed.

If it was 2005 its pretty much nothing happened.  But during 2006, I've been told that one of my friend's sister had her sign removed cuz it said "tap dance for money" which is soliciting.  I stopped the "give me money for DDR" ever since.

I'm not reading all of that, but I think "Free Hugs" should be okay since it's almost everywhere nowadays. :3
