When instead of addressing the person that answered them they quote the entire message then answer the 5 words.Bandwidth just wasted.There are is more quoting going on, on this site than many of the ones I visit combined ! Sometimes I see 4 or 5 quotes in one message! I just dont get it I guess.Im not trying to step on anyones toes by at times it looks like a bunch of High School kids sending IMs to each other ! [] We need quote police ! LOLLLLLLLLL Ok I ll step off my box now.Thanks for listening ! hehehe

What?

He said he hates how people abuse the quote functionality.

Oh, thanks. I was really confused.

You're quite welcome. I'm always glad to help a friend out!

Who?
Which post are you referring to?

That's enough!!! NO MORE!

I agree.

With who?

At this point, does it really matter?

Oops, sorry- I had a little relapse just now. I'm heading off to my quotaholics 12=step meeting now![}][}] (I'm blaming Skye and Eagle and Beamer and Navydiver for putting temptation right in front of me- some friends you guys are![][]

Eagle, you can't keep making up new acronyms and not tell the rest of us what they mean. I couldn't find that on one on the official list.

[angboy]

I'm glad I wasn't the only one who didn't know what QFT meant- I was almost not going to ask after recently showing my ignorance on many other acronyms!

But Eagle, now it looks like both Christian and I need some translating done. [][]
