This is how Colin usually quotes other people.

Have any of you guys noticed that in some of his posts? Why do you think he does it like that when he could just simply click "Quote"? Is that his trademark or his sense of style?

No, I'm not doing some crackdown on the habits of users. I'm just simply curious about that.

Actually, no, but I'll take your word for it.

Possibly just so he can specify what he's replying to, somewhat like what I've done here.

Is that his trademark or his sense of style?
Unless this is the only way he does it, I'd say it's just a matter of convenience.

Of course, you'd have to ask Colin himself why he does it if you want an answer that's not purely speculation.

He probably hit's "new reply" while reading the thread, which is what I do sometimes. So in order to quote them, you'd have to go back and quote... or you can just copy and paste what you want to respond to in italics. Much easier? WHY YES!

I agree with Danielle.
Sometimes, I do this:

For similar reasons to what I quoted.

On the subject of quoting, I have to say Trapster is simply the worst offender of bad quoting.

If he wants to quote two people in the same post, he usually does the first one by the simple and effective "quote" button, but the second button he only uses these quotations ->"

Does even specify who is quoting. I mean, how hard is it to go, copy and paste the quote tag or even write a new quote tag for that specific line of text?

Shit. No wonder I stop reading his posts.

You dare mock our abnormal methods of quoting? You people are racists. Having multiple quotes takes up too much room, especially if you're just commenting on comments. The post would be 80% quote makeup, and only 20% relevant text. Boo.

I would have to say mine are better than yours too. Your quotes just have a quote picture in the corner, with a white thing on the side. To me its always seemed like your layout was incomplete.

The white thing is IE not supporting PNG transparency. Though GIF would probably be better to use here.

I always thought of HH's layout as a huge chunk of code of which 90% is either obsolete or not needed. Just look at it.

Nobody told me there was a problem with the quote box. Also, most HTML is 90% obsolete/unnecessary. Just look at the board.

Sorry for not mentioning it before. Like I said, I thought your layout was still WIP. Just make that a GIF so it will work in both IE and lololol.

That doesn't always work. Some colors in FF look different in IE.

That, and in 16-Bit mode the colors are determined randomly between two colors.

And the board doesn't have much useless HTML, from what I've seen.
