Well, I find it annoying, yes. Here are some of my thoughts on the subject, in fact.

At the end of the day, this is obviously a LEGO-fansite, but it seems childish in a “he-men-women-haters-club” sort of way to attach a little snark in the spamblock. But if the majority find it entertaining or harmless, or if they just don’t notice it, it’s no big deal to me. I only post on LUGNET once a week or so anymore, unless something in the off-topic area grabs my attention.

Dave!
