Reminder on Good Quoting Etiquette
#10
RE: Reminder on Good Quoting Etiquette
I'd just like to add: if your post follows directly on from one to which you're responding and your intention is to continue the flow of conversation, there may not be any need to reply with quote at all. Think of it as a real-life conversation - you don't always need to repeat everything the last person said in order to add your points.

Also, in the case of posted videos and/or images, please consider whether you need to include them in your quote, especially if you're not addressing them in your reply. Some of us who rely on the mobile version of the site can find that everything slows right down or even crashes out if there's one video posted several times across multiple pages.
At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist.  This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair.  Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second.  That means there's a situation vacant.'
