I think it means "no sitting on fences"
At first I was convinced this was "No building demolition"
No sitting on giant books? idk fuck
At first i thought this said no petting flowers
LOL no guns
No horn playing?
No pissing
No tooting your own horn. :)
No dodgeball?
No ball stamping
No chevrons!

Not really engrish, but this park in Beijing sure has a lot of things you can't do. 
This photo has notes. Move your mouse over the photo to see them.

That must be "no setting off firecrackers," like those pictured here:www.flickr.com/photos/testpatern/96088055/

Before I saw the caption, I thought, "Singapore" - I guess the sign would be much bigger there...

Left to Right, top to bottom:
No motorcycles/mopeds/bikes
Don't pick the flowers (expensive gardening)
Don't sit on handrails/fences (people don't use benches)
No taxi's (Taxi's aren't allowed to loiter around park)
No littering
No horns (or loud noises in general)
No rollerblading
No sports
No guns (military/police/MP's included?)
No Pets
No firecrackers or the like
No fires

This is all an effort to get the locals to shape up for the upcoming Olympics. I'm surprised they left out no spitting. Welcome to Digg

Digg effect: "making lots of really annoying photo notes" ;) No seriously, thanks all for visiting! Check out some of the other signs I saw in China:

Engrish club sign (One of the worst Engrish I've seen ever!)

Don't fall down
Take care of the gap

Why do Americans say "Engrish"? Is that to make fun of someone's attempt to learn our language? How good is your Cantonese, Japanese, Korean? Have YOU made an attempt to learn their language?

Not much different than in Boston ... most of these are covered by state or local ordinances, or hiking practices like Leave No Trace

Sorry for the notes, but I don't wanna stop the creativity ;) Just reload the page and avoid mouse over on the photo ;) I just made it Creative Commons, so you should also be able to see the photo in "All sizes".

if it wasn't for JustinMetz's note over the whole image, they should go away when you move your mouse away from the image.

RE:mywildcrow8's comment. We're not making fun of 'someone's' attempt to 'learn' the language. We're making fun of some business or government who can't be asked to hire a competent translator to do it right. Sheesh.
