How is it obnoxious? I find it extremely practical.

I know its your opinion, hence why I asked why it is your opinion.

Yes it is.....like I just said. It enables the user to pick out certain sentances, or indeed whole paragraphs of a text and accurately reply with their points. It makes it a lot easier for everyone watching also.

I can do that with my quoting type too.

I can do that with my quoting type too.
-and accurately reply with their points.
And I can do that with my quoting type as well. So what's the problem?

The problem is, you still haven't answered my original question. Why is it obnoxious?
All you have done is say that your method is as practical as quoting, that wasn't even the issue.

Bad Wolf, same reason most of the world does not like America. The rest of your posts after that is very much indicative of the attitudes non-Americans look down upon.
But if we walk in the light, as He is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus, His Son, purifies us from all sin.

I simply do not like it. I prefer keeping my posts with as few visualizations as possible.
Also, I think we've swayed a bit from the topic of this thread, don't you think?

This would have been over in two posts if you could just answer a simple question.

Oh so I'm a liar now am I? Pray tell, what have I lied to you about? Or are you just continuing on your little temper tantrum. Go back on the naught step and have a good think about yourself, child.

Looks like it is you having the emotional outbursts like some 15-year-old.
You haven't just lied to me, but to everyone on this forum through your dishonest posts. You are someone I pray never goes to Moslem nation....it would be like a KKK member going to East Washington D.C.

Wow, projecting much.
So i'm assuming you've given up and are now admitting that I was right and you were wrong, seeing as you have failed to reply to my previous post. What other reason could there be?

Its all very well and good for you to accuse me of lying, but now you have to provide evidence for it. That is how the world works, a claim is made and evidence is given. What have I lied about specifically? Give me examples.
