Good things come to those who wait. You need a certain number of posts (10, I think) before you can add a signature. Then, click on Profile in the bar near the top, and there will be a third choice: Forum Profile.

I guess 4 posts is the magic number...

CR requires a few posts to turn on that feature. It came about do to spammers with robots that signed them up and posted links in the profile to business web sites.

This was done to fraudently raise the rating of the web sites in Google, by crooked SEO companies.

If Google found this, they might ban CR as a link farm, so thousands of fake members had to be manually checked and removed, it took several moderators working weeks to check each member and remove the bad ones.

The number of posts required to enter a profile has changed a couple of times, and might change again if the spammers take advantage.

Signature feature turned on for me after 10 posts although I didn't add anything. Perhaps it's not automatic at a certain number (if so spammers would get it automatically as well after posting any crap) but rather when the moderators review the account after a few posts and feel like it's a real contributor?

That is automatically assigned based on number of posts. You are raised to higher models as your post count goes up.

an incentive to post then ;D

The big question is, when will we see neuroanatomist become a 1D X?
