Another posting lesson-quoting posts in replies

[steaktartar]

Absolutely, this is a HUGE pet peeve of mine!

i agree to a certain extent...sometimes it is necessary to specifically make ones post have more sense to it

you just hit the quote button and then take out what you dont want leaving the quote tags intact

Just take out what i don't want? Is there a "take out what i don't want"
button? Kind of like take out pizza, only worse. But what if i don't want to
take any out. Is there a leave it all in there switch. Also what if i want to
add something to the person's quote that he didn't say, for the purpose
of clarification. :think2:

"Quiet Riot - Bang Your Head {Metal Health}"

Which head is this talking about? I'm not sure if the
video is safe to watch.

I couldn't find whalewager's quote button for that,
so i had to type it all out.

When a guy has a huge post and you want to reply to it...don't quote the whole gd thing...don't quote it at all if you don't have to...just reply to the gd thing and move on...no reason for a post to be 3 damn miles long...

what if i want to
add something to the person's quote that he didn't say

It's called "chopping" and it has been done.
