You, too! I'm gonna watch "Popatopolis" but mostly going to edit a vid before my adobe sub runs out. You?
Sometimes I quote, sometimes I don't. It comes down to laziness and to whether I'm responding to something specific that was said. It also depends on where I'm posting. If it's in someone's review thread or something like a HOF thread, I might not quote because there's a good chance that person will check that thread regularly. It does drive me crazy when people quote lengthy posts - like movie reviews - just to make one quick statement. Come on people, if you're going to quote something like that, edit the quote down so that others can understand what you're responding to without having to scroll through a long post that they've already read.
How do I get rid of it?

You've still got that New User smell.
Hope someone doesn't have a problem with my newness.
I'm sorry, I can't hear you, Dani8. I'm too busy being a delicate genius who would never shake hands let alone quote something YOU wrote! ;P
For me it's a bit annoying if I'm on my mobile to have to scroll over quotes so I'm conscious it annoys other posters. s I said, easier to tag or rep.

See, I havent quoted you there because it might annoy phone users.
What is the deal with replying without quotes? I've done it myself but only by following example. Seems a chance way to communicate that relies on the member checking back on the thread, and an aloof way to conversate
I dont always quote because I dont want to fill the screen with repeating what ws said so I'll rep or tag instead a lot of the time
