If you're complaining about sigs and USENET rules


I wasn't.


it's quite a common one
that the sig shouldn't be longer than the rest of the post.


Got a URL to that effect?


Four lines is the limit.
Look at 4.3 in the second reference - but it may be a good idea to read the
lot.

Really, I believe I mentioned that before, but thanks for confirming
it *sigh*.

You read it first before sending it to me to waste my time reading as
it has feck all to do with .sigs, and mine is perfectly legitimate.

Which is about quoting.

Which confirms my .sig is fine.

Hi, Chaps.

Now as the OP I wonder if I could politely ask if we could return to my
orginal question.
Thanks.

But I answered that, the thread is fair game after that :-)

It will be free to all but morons, the fact that you can't seem to be
able to read suggests that it wont be free to you...

Adverts say it is free, Sky Digi box says I need a subscription but I
understand an ordinary FTA digi box will get it.
(Freeview box says it is to come.)
What is going on?

Anyone know if FilmFour is going to be free on NTL? I couldn't find anything
about it on their website(but then I can't find much of any use on there!),
and they didn't reply to my email (suprisingly), and I'm not going to ring
their customer support line because they have started charging 5p per minute
to be kept on hold for half an hour...
So, thought I'd ask you guys... :-)

Cheers,
