As long as you fail to create and use a proper signature block[1], and in failing to do so insert your URL into every article itself (which to me equals spamming every group you participate in with every message you send), you hardly seem te be the one who should respond with this rude finger thingy.



[1]
,------[ <URL:http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Signature_block> ]
| Since by definition these blocks are added automatically
| to a message, usually regardless of its content, there are
| guidelines of netiquette regarding their size. The most
| common guideline, called the McQuary limit, is a size of
| no more than four lines of less than eighty columns each.
| This keeps the overall size of the message down, conserving
| bandwidth as well as the time required to read the message,
| and ensures that eighty-column terminals (the most common
| terminal width by far) can display the sig block properly,
| allowing for programs that reserve the last column for a
| continuation character; using all eighty columns for text
| can result in a character wrapping to the next line.
|
| The formatting of the sig block is prescribed somewhat more
| firmly: it should be displayed as plain text in a fixed-width
| font (no HTML, images, or other rich text), and must be
| delimited from the body of the message by a single line
| consisting of exactly two hyphens, followed by a space,
| followed by the end of line (i.e., "-- \n").
