That makes JEK's signature is spam, even if it is technically within Mat's rules.

All my sig states is my position and affiliation with my site. I am not using it to "punt my own site or product for my own financial gain." I don't state what services or content are on my site in my sig, just that I'm associated w/BW.com so that everyone who reads my posts knows where I'm coming from. I don't advertise in my sig, I let my paid banner do that.

IMO, if you wanted to make an example of someone who spams in their sig, I think you could make a much better case with any of the myriad of people offering rake rebates in their sigs. I don't think my sig fits any definition of spam.
