I'll give you my opinion as to why it is annoying.
It's annoying because as a forum user for as long as they existed (dial up bbs anyone?) I can tell you that a forum is supposed to have a more conversational approach to it. i.e a chat board. Signing off your name kinda spoils this and goes against the whole point of informal chat.
An email is signed off normally as email replaces letters as a formal method of communication.
Therefore that is how I find it annoying. It would appear that some people don't care or arnt bothered - I just feel it's poor communication - it doesn't need to be there, no one is going to think 'who wrote those two sentences??'.
