i hear you matticus..what im saying is, sometimes its overkill..like i said earlier, "the digital equivalent of over-foreststation"

To be serious for a second, I get what your point is. I might find it annoying myself if I was someone who used the TB app and it took a lot of scrolling to get to someone's response.

I tend to be a user more like the one you requested. When Im responding to a post I may quote the poster Im responding to, but I typically try to cut out as much as is unnecessary to my reply.

Im just not quite as bothered by the people who quote an entire post, as I only really visit TB when Im at a PC.
 
I can't stand when I post something that I think is really profound and nobody reads it because everyone in the thread is only responding to the OP and not reading other people's responses - therefore saying the same thing someone else already said, ad nauseum, when they could have gotten the answers to the cosmos from my humble post.

I have delusions of grandeur that have to be maintained or I'll cry.

Maybe more yogurt will help keep you "maintained"? :p

Haha, really though, its funny when 20 people reply to the OP, and 15 of those people are saying the same thing, when they could have read the thread and simply "+1"'d the guy who said what they wanted to say. :smug:

Shoot, I'll need a chunk of casu marzu to get past it! :bawl:

You mean like the thread where the dude's active bass was going silent and fifty people in a row told him to change his 9-volt battery? ;)
