It sucks when people quote things and you have to read it again.

I liked the old way as well. After something is quoted like 50 times the freakin thread becomes a mess....

And, back then, there weren't any threads that had so many quotes in them that they fvcked up the page width even when your browser was maximized at 1600x1200. :eek:

I think quoting is good, sometimes I flick through a thread and miss some posts, until I read them in a quote someone's made.
