This is known as the "good netkeeping seal of approval".  You can override it, 
but you shouldn't.  What it means is that it considers a too-high ratio of 
quoted text to original material to be unacceptable.  In these days of 
threaded newsreaders, it's rarely necessary to quote one's entire message.

Now if only we can get every newsreader to deliver electric shocks to people 
posting MMF's.
