I can still read it either way.
It makes no difference to me.

In a time long past, the armies of the dark came again to the lands of men. Their leaders became known as the fallen lords, and their terrible sorcery was without equal in the west.
In 30 years they reduced the civilized nations into carrion and ash. Until the free city of Madrigal alone defined them. An army gathered there, and a desperate battle was joined against the fallen
Heros were born in the fire and bloodshed of the wars which followed and their names and deeds will never be forgotten

I quote the first way, but don't see a problem with people quoting any other way.

Who the hell do you think I am?

It can be a little awkward trying to read a whole conversation when if say, one person is quoting on the top and the other quotes on the bottom, but otherwise it doesn't really bother me much.

I don't understand oral at all. I will never do that it is so nasty! And doing things in woods sounds scary.

It only bothers me when they're quoting multiple people.

I come to Bnet to distract myelf from homicidal and suicidal ideations.

That is why I go according to the first quote. I quote this way more often due to my laptop not having a mouse with a scroll wheel.

It doesn't bother me at all. Besides, what is normal when it comes to the internet?

Besides this way when I look down my recent posts for this post I will actually see what I posted. Other wise when you quote the other way the quote appears instead of what you actually said. When I found this out it changed my Bungie.net life.

There is no right or wrong way to quote someone OP. Either way works just fine.

  • 12.28.2011 8:45 AM PDT

I do it because it makes some people mad. That's the only reason.

Trying something once will increace your chances of success, because you tried it. Try someting twice, and your chances increase yet again - seeing as you've done it. Try something a few thousand times, and your chances of success is exponentially increased; this increase would likely provide success every time

I do both really, more for experimental phsycological reasons though. I look at it with a very open mind - probably more than it should be - so I'm never really bothered with it.

If there is a quote pyramid with people quoting top and bottom it's hard for me to tell who posted what first, but usually I can read it. Also, good luck trying to get Achronos to quote top... He'd rather die.

I put my reply below the quote, because I don't see any point in putting the quote underneath. I guess I just like the order of things I read to be logical and coherent.

That's because he is an e-hipster. How can you not like smiley faces?

Got a question, comment, or concern? PM me.

It is even worse when they quote two things and I think they are trying the quote the thing above them.

I suppose, but I rarely check on my old posts (they get deleted or are lost from the list sooner or later), and I could easily save the thread if I really took an interest in it.

  • 12.28.2011 9:14 AM PDT

Not really. I can read it either way.

I normally write above a quote, just because there's a nice space there. But if I respond to someone then change to referring the topic, I separate it.

I have these special eyes that read the quote box first, it works out ;)

And the Shadow fell upon the Land, and the World was riven stone from stone. The oceans fled, and the mountains were swallowed up, and the nations were scattered to the eight corners of the World. The moon was blood, and the sun was as ashes. The seas boiled, and the living envied the dead. All was shattered, and all but memory lost, and one memory above all others, of him who brought the Shadow and the Breaking of the World. And him they named Dragon.

My text first is the only logical thing.

stupid reason.

Quoting above is the most logical thing to do and the so-called "pros" to quoting below are laughable besides "it's easier" (which is just pathetic).
