There is yet another way to improve (if thats what you want to call it) ones post count.

That is to start a ridiculous thread to complain or ask an explanation of the ridiculous.  :D

But dont mind me. I hardly ever say anything. ;)

Why is there air? Why isn't there blue food? Why do people quote without comments? All great questions....

Why is the sky blue, why are dogs obsessed with fire hydrants, what makes teflon stick to the pan?

This is one of the few forums I see such behavior...... I always thought it to be a simple way to increase your post count (And regardless of the bullchit you reply with here.... That is what you're doing)

So what is this supposed to be?  To reiterate what somebody else said, but not include your own thoughts? (post count)

To magnify a great idea?  (Why not say you agree? post count)

To do some other thing that my high IQ can't figure?



I'd really like to hear a good explanation over this silly chit........

If I have to, I'll dig up the 67 known occurrences I know of, which includes respected members of this board........

Really love to hear why somebody "quotes" without any commentary.


Hmmm now I need something to add

Often its some tard asking something that has already been answered.  When its not worth re-typing, many just paste in the previous response.

Actually, I think more often it's some tard not paying attention to the quote tags and types their reply inside the quote block.  Either that, or they change a couple of words or pepper their comments throughout the quote and think that's good enough.

How old are you and why is your life so boring? Most threads in this forum are over by the 5th reply.

I quoted someone in that AvA memorial flight killer thread just to remind everyone he "called it" in a previous thread.  I could care less about my post count.  Sometimes quotes speak for themselves, trying to add something under them just tarnishes the effect.
