Short answer:  When working in the text box, typing a reply, highlight anything you don't want quoted and press the [delete] key.

It might help you if you put the editor in source mode and respond that way. (You can also select to put the editor in source mode by default under User CP > Edit Options.)




It's possible that you have some prior posts marked for inclusion in your reply. Simply find those posts and click on the icon shown below to unselect them.

Such is the task before you OP.

Oh, interesting, and that's a ton of stuff in there. When I respond to you I am responding to you alone, and, nonetheless, the retarded robotics wants to send out a plethora of other person's posts, or in this case two, over and over....Thank You Astreja.  I take it from your vernacular that you are British.  Negatio.

You guys are being some kind of vicious here, appearing to hate me for deluded reasons of your own, sowing contention... seemingly, clearly, harassing me... it could be that you do not realize that Philosophy is, in essence, a polemical/dialectical process wherein persons engage in reciprocal attacks upon each other's theoretical positions.  It is a struggle, a match, a contesting;...Lucanus is incorrect when it comes to the Philosophy section of this forum, the Philosophy forum is not, cannot be, the causal, informal interchange common to all other rubrics of discussion upon the forum. 
Reference the dialectical exchange which transpired between Jormungandr and me.  She is radically intelligent, and, she has some familiarity with existential phenomenological ontological theoretical constructs.  She, with a genuine interest in what I am engaging-in here, seriously responded with a critique of my position.  I studied her position, and determined, legitimately, that is was an argument by extension (a  notion taught in basic logic class in junior college), which argument by extension is one of many types of fallacy/fallacious argumentation which one has to be ready to recognize and, protect one's self from, in philosophical polemical, dialectical, argumentation. She inadvertently, not intentionally set forth an argument by extension, which, because she forgot to be totally reflectively careful to avoid self-inconsistency in her position, had set forth a theoretically unintelligible position, which, ultimately, wound-up positing support for the position she was alleging to be incorrect.  Her position was overthrown via my knowledge of that which constitutes theoretical unintelligibility in thinking.  She and I are not mad, angry, alienated; she is back in touch, questioning, attacking...no problema...
Inter-argumentation in the Philosophy section of this forum is not a species of trolling, which appears to be what you seem to see here and, want to unjustifiably ascribe to my interaction with members.  This troll shit is vicious, and, it seems to me, given what little I know of it, that in actual fact, it is you who are, now, trolling me ! You have succeeded in pissing me off; and I want to say fuck off, stupid asses ! But, then, that would not be netiquette. So , indeed, you succeed in inducing contention and alienation where there was none, you radically stupid ignoramuses;---review the stupid shit you have said and done in regard to me:  I must be on drugs; a shelf of books fell on my brain; I am autistic, OCD, narcissistic, asfuckbergerian; I have a stick stuck up my ass; I am a pompous asshole who should crawl back under his rock ---- what the fuck, who's trolling here ? YOU KEVINM1, and, surreptitiously, KHEMIKAL, who I was really genuinely liking a lot, and when I totally cussed him out, believe it or not, is was a teasing love. So I say fuck off; if you are too uneducated and too unreflective to engage in rational polemical dialectic, stay the hell out of the damn hot kitchen which is the Philosophy Forum...we're  not going to dumb down just because you are so stuck on vicious and goddamn stupid, that you cannot accurately see what transpires in philosophical interchange !  Leave me out of you Troll-weltanschauung, dummies ! Negatio.

Canadian, actually (Canadian English is similar to British in that we use spellings like "colour" instead of "color").

I'm also a big fan of British comedy and a lot of the jargon has slipped into my vocabulary over the years.

"You're all dummies who just don't understand my brilliant argument"

Meh, 1/10 and not going to be worth too many pages - it's just too common.

Thank you.

Please, don't bother.  Surely no one still cares.
