I don't understand why ppl reply to a thread with a quote and no text. Am I missing something?

I completely agree. It was funny the first time I saw it, but it seems to ruin perfectly good threads. It's still fun though:D!

I can say that again.
Exactly. But why say that again when you can simply quote someone else, confirming what they said, therby validating their point and upping your post count?! It's definately a fantastic neffing alternative to logical thought and interesting conversation. Hail La Revelution of mindless drones!

If someone has already posted basically what you were going to say anyway, it's easier to just quote them as an indication of your thoughts and a conformation of theirs.
