How do you like to reference previous comments?

 

Using this method:

I like to quote like this

 

Or the

 

^I completely agree with you. I am going to use a hat to indicate I was refering to your comment.

 

Or the

 

@briggins You are gross get out of my house.

 

Or nothing at all.

either the 1st or second

if possibly I prefer nothing.

surely, there are better things to talk about in the lounge. :blank:

 

 

 

 

no.

 

 

 

and that way :nice:

I tend to quote a lot, it's just nice to see what the other person wrote and have that above you while you're writing.

I need to use that hat more often though, it's really nice looking.

^ agreed.

first one, i hate to first read the reaction and than looking back the first post.

First or second, depending on how lazy I feel :P

First or second method.

 

But if you try to use the second method and someone posts before you finish your response, then the ^ is moot because it no longer refers back to the post you were actually responding to.

Exactly, that is why I use QUOTE - sometimes I use @ (followed by username/name of the person in question)

The hat ^ doesn't work unless you're posting directly after the intended quoted post. Some people use the double hat ^^ to signify it's two posts up, I've never seen a triple hat ^^^ but I guess that would mean it's really getting out of control and eventually we'd be starting posts with ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

I dont' think the ^^ concept is fully understand. It may look like the person is just trying to make a cat.

would arrows be easier?

I don't like ^ 's

How do you make an arrow?

I can't find it.

I use ^ when the post is directly before mine, and simple/general enough to where I don't need to specify exactly what part I'm responding to. Everything else I use

quotes

i like the "^" method, because i'm lazy

all.

^ That. :P

the old phpbb board used to quote everything including previous quotes. Which does everyone prefer?

I preferred the old one, but it used to crash a lot more (And I'd hate to see how it would cope with how there's 10 times more posts/members these days)

I don't like the whole "adding the previous quotes" thing. It annoys me.

it depends

I either put nothing there if it's the post above me or use QUOTE tags. I rarely use ^
