Nobody does that, Smacdo. And if they do, they aren't intelligent
enough to post on a newsgroup such as this one. "That word is spelled
wrong"? I don't think someone would say that without mentioning the
word. Perhaps "I disagree with what you say" and "I don't think the
comparison you make is valid" appear in threads, however, it usually is
pretty clear as to what they are replying to.

And why is it that nobody does that? Because there are guidelines that
people follow. Why do people make it clear what they are replying to?
Guidelines. Why would people mention the word they thought was spelled
wrong? Yup. Guidelines.

Look, I didn't realize that the .sig thing was a big deal...apparently
it is. If you remember correctly I compared it to jaywalking.
However, apparently its part of the guidelines in the same way as
bottom posting, quoting, trimming, etc.

Just my 2 cents to help you see what everyone is trying to tell you and
you seem to be missing. I am not interested in a big back and
forth...if you don't get it...you don't get it. I tried.
