Hey, I know. I'll post something. Gee, I wonder if people(or possible myself)could get confused as to who i am replying to. Could it be the person RIGHT FUCKING ABOVE ME? Nah, better use the damn quotes so i can take up space and look gay.

Yeah, I agree, it does get annoying when people quote the whole text of a previous message. On the other hand, if you are responding to a specific statement by someone, quoting just that sentence is a good way to avoid ambiguity and show what you're responding to. Edit: you can't nest quotes, apparently. And I just messed up horizontal scrolling too... And then the ubb code got partially transformed to html...

but quotes are just so damn cool how can you resist their quote goodness. They smell just like a llamas anus and taste exactly the same way. The button is waiting for you to click it, CLICK IT, you know you want to. Its just like a whore with opened legs. Go ahead, you know you want to.
