A catch-phrase is usually a vocalization of some kind placed somewhere within a speech. It doesn't have to be anywhere in particular you see, Nya-haha. It just has to be someplace there. But as these are not vocal in themselves it is a pattern of typing which becomes the catch-phrase, or a habit of typing style that sets one apart from the rest. One such example is if someone was to write their posts out in "Olde English". A signature doesn't necessarily count as a catch-phrase, because it is separate from what you are actually writing... Unless you manually paste it at the end of everything you write.
