Signatures allow posters to leave a byline at the bottom of each post. This could include links to their own website, images, favorite quotes, and other information.
Allowing signatures increases the security risks of the forum and also creates more textual content on each thread that distracts from the discussion. However, it may also be a good way to network with other members and share valuable information.
