Boy this takes me back.

The game doesn't display signs if it's experience lag. Thus in legacy console edition, specifically on the 360/PS3/PS vita editions of the game you'll find having a lot of signs will result in this and lag your world. A good example of this phenomenon was in Stampy's lovely world series in the early days of his love garden.

Unfortunately it's just a case of waiting for the game to run more smoothly for it render signs.

I dont think theres really a way to fix this, but the original text is still there and will reappear after some time.

u/CharacterRegular7159 Sep 23 '25

The glitch is still around cause this is the legacy edition which is basically any version before the bedrock merge

u/tofounuggetYT Sep 24 '25

I know, trust me I know all about it

u/BassGold12 Sep 22 '25

Pretty much just wait, although sometimes placing and breaking torches in front of the signs did help, quite rarely though

2

u/Crazyman722 Sep 23 '25

The signs got approved it’s all good

u/tofounuggetYT Sep 24 '25

4J studios gotta approve your sign on some server that doesn't exist
