The signature police speaking..

Let's compare:

So prad's crime basically consists in making the greeting part part of
his signature. Counting that part out, he'd have a 4-line signature:
,----
| In friendship,
| prad
|
| --
| ... with you on your journey
| Towards Freedom
| http://www.towardsfreedom.com (website)
| Information, Inspiration, Imagination - truly a site for soaring I's

One possible solution:
In .gnus.el:
,----
| (setq gnus-parameters
| `((".*"
| (posting-style (body "\n\n\nIn friendship,\nprad\n")))))
`----
In .signature:
,----
| ... with you on your journey
| Towards Freedom
| http://www.towardsfreedom.com (website)
| Information, Inspiration, Imagination - truly a site for soaring I's
`----
That being said -- keep the noise low, there are enough ads on the web,
short signatures ftw.
