If this is your signature, the probably is probably that gnus is
considering your entire post to be the signature.

Convention has the signature start with a line containing two hyphens, a
space, and a newline.  Gnus searches for this when scanning for the
signature.

Your signature has no separator, so it has no way of finding it.  It
also means that the signature won't be visually distinguished by clients
that have that capability.
