On second thought, this would be a more proper term to describe your replies:

Ad nauseam is a Latin term used to describe an argument which has been continuing “to [the point of] nausea”.[1] For example, the sentence “This topic has been discussed ad nauseam” signifies that the topic in question has been discussed extensively and everyone involved in the discussion is sick and tired of it. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ad_nauseam

Gee, I wonder how many more terms I can find to use from the site in which you received your cut & paste jd from?

A perfect description of the whole eligibility issue, in totitem verbis.
