I expect this will get me flamed out of existence, but what the hell.
[ MODE Points of View ]Why, oh why [/MODE] do so many people feel it necessary to quote ENTIRE long posts rather than snipping relevant bits - particularly if the post is on the same page, or even the previous post.
It's a minor irritation and I am 100% sure that I have been guilty of doing this myself on occasion - I do try not to most of the time. And if it's only a minor irritation, why am I moaning about it? Because I'm in a bad mood and feeling petty, pathetic and pointless, that's why.
It's a shocking waste of space though - I wouldn't mind betting that Franck could significantly reduce his storage space requirements (and therefore reduce hosting costs) if fewer people quoted essays written by others...
Feel free to quote this post in its entirety - very amusing. It won't annoy me because I can't get any worse...
No thanks. And I quite agree with you....
I don't do it very often but it tends to be out of sheer laziness on the 1 or 2 occasions that I have .......
Hope what ever is bugging you goes away and you feel better/happier very soon
BIG HUGgggg for you
Oh my god!!!!it must be another of those days that end in Y.... poor old LMC when will they stop
I agree with the main point
No because some people are lazy and instead of having to go to the top of the thread to see what you have said they can look just above them
I do agree sometimes its over used but only on very long quotes
Quoting the whole post doesn't really matter on short quotes.
But for long quotes it looks terrible as much as anything. If it's a question of remembering what's been said you can still delete the quote - or the non-relevant bits of the quote - after you've typed your answer but before you hit the "submit" key.
I REALLY need a holiday!
I agree entirely. Though sometimes posting no quote is even worse!
Let your mind go and your body will follow. – Steve Martin, LA Story
And who says you have to quote what was actually said?I love Andy McGregorAnd modest with it
like this you mean ??
No-one - but I thought there was a general unwritten rule that PMs shouldn't be posted on the forum
Oh well, at least it was a short quote... :non-existent deadpan smiley:
Has he reallyAnd Stewart 38 has a great wiggle
For goodness sake Martin, do you HAVE to quote the significant content of every single post on this thread?
Given now it looks like the Bing bank theory is all wrong
what if that statement was true ?
What???
Stewart, please talk sense, at least occasionally...
Maybe it's just "time of the month"Oh my god!!!!

Nice hot bath and an early night, everything will be better in the morning
Sorry i meant the big bang theory, which i think is wrongWhat???
Stewart, please talk sense, at least occasionally...
The Big Bang theory of the universe is wrong because the cosmological red shift is due to the Compton effect rather than the Doppler effect. See The Endless, Boundless, Stable Universe by Grote Reber and Hubble's Constant in Terms of the Compton Effect by John Kierein.
Reber showed that the Compton effect was the cause of the red shift in order to explain the observations of bright very long wavelength extragalactic radio waves. Kierein used the Compton effect explanation to explain quasars and the red shift on the sun. etc
it was in the paper today
in a nut shell the universe is expanding faster and faster which cant be explained by the big bang theory or the Daily Mail.

Is this in response to what Mr Mcgregor wrote about your wiggle
