Look at your .sig, a > lot of useless information, but you send it every time. It's a fraction of the useless information that you send every time by always duplicating the entire previous post. Just how many times do you need to see that list of URLs anyway? It certainly creates the impression that you believe that your wit and wisdom is of such great value that your every trivial and inconsequential thought must be broadcast to the world at large the moment it pours forth from your imagination, a matter of such earth-shattering import that we would not want to wait the three seconds it would take you to trim the spam from your post. This is why you're getting the treatment: you come across to have an overly-high opinion of your own worth. FTR, I'd be happy to wait that extra 3 seconds.
