You know, that's a great question, Ash. One of the first things I
did on my DROID was to create a quick one-line signature begging
forgiveness if it threw the formatting off or top-posted on a list[1].
While some may argue that it falls under the "posting can wait"
rule, I don't personally interpret that to mean the same thing,
because that rule was effected due to heated arguments and
troll-fueled rifts. However, that said, in all but the rarest of
circumstances - for the reason of formatting and lack of options to
place the cursor in email replies on Android - I do generally wait.
Primarily because I don't want to be the jackass who points out the
rules, then essentially says, "do as I say, not as I do." ;-P
