Do you prefer your text above or below the quote in you post body?

I myself like it below. This is probably due to the way that I started doing it when I learned about the feature.

Above.

Honestly, I quote below because all I have to do it click the quote button and type.

Easier to read: below.
Easier to do: above.

Personally, I'd rather quote to my convenience than yours, so I quote on top. Cry about it.

Below. Even though Achronos says it should be properly done above...

I usually put my text above. I used to put it above and below sometimes, to show a pause in speaking. Long ago, I used to post below the quote, I don't remember when I changed it or why, I think it just... happened. Meh...

Achronos ran out of logic in 1996. Below = Pro.

I quote below and I also delete the space at the top.

Funny because I thought that I was the only one that did that? Guess not.

Yeah, i agree completely.

I would like it above, but always end up below.

Depends on what I am quoting. Sometimes above, other times below, and once in awhile in the middle.

Why did your head explode?

I prefer to refer to others' statements instead of simply "quoting" a person. You get a more communal and friendly conversation that way.

However, the need does arise on occasion, and like Dr Weird said, where I quote depends on the subject's current state.

Now, in the quantum moment before the closure, when all become one. One moment left. One point of space and time.

I know who you are.

You are Destiny.

I always prefer bottoming rather than topping.

  • 12.23.2011 6:19 PM PDT

I do a bit of both really, I guess I don't really have a preference. Most of the time I quote and then type my reply but sometimes I'll be a little bit cheeky and make people read my reply and then see the original quote ;D

But I usually reply down here.

  • 12.23.2011 6:28 PM PDT

Most of the time on the bottom, but I know for some reason Achronos absolutely loves writing above the quote.

"You build on failure. You use it as a stepping stone. Close the door on the past. You don't try to forget the mistakes, but you don't dwell on it. You don't let it have any of your energy, or any of your time, or any of your space." -Johnny Cash

I prefer having my text below the quote. It's just the way I've always done it, so you could call it a habbit.

Real account.

If you assign every letter of the alphabet a number, a is 1, b is 2, etc., and you take all of the values of the word "MATH", and add them, you get 42. So math is the meaning of life, the universe, and everything.

Posting below the quote has become little less of an instinct while here now. Though the only times I ever post above the quote is when I'm not talking towards the poster, rather using it to help my point across.
