DO NOT Quote the Original Post in a Topic!

Are you one of those morons that thinks they need to quote the original post of a topic all the time? Sit back and think about it for a second. People go into a topic because…well…they are interested in what the topic is about. Don’t you think that everyone else coming into the topic is going to pretty much know that the responses are related to the original post? Sure…topics get hijacked pretty often, but any idiot can understand if someone is replying to the topic if the thread, and not some stupid offshoot topic that arose in the thread. You CAN quote the off-topic BS people bring up and reply to that.

If the topic is about vinyl shutters, you can pretty much agree that responses about that subject are going to be easily identified do you not?

The WORST offenders of this are those that quote the original topic when it is an ARTICLE. A goddman article! Why would you quote an article? Seriously people. Think about what the bloody hell you are doing here. IF I clicked on the topic I already read the article unless I just replied with tl:dr, when I get to your worthless one line post. Yes, they quote a 1000 word article and then after you scroll all the way down through what you already read, you see a ONE LINE response. Idiots.
