I have been seeing this a lot lately.
Someone writes a fairly long post, lets say, 40 lines. The first person to reply quotes the entire original post and then reply’s with 2 lines.
I can understand why people might do this when a post is on its 2nd or 30th page, but certainly not on the first reply.

How did I know this would happen?
No, I’m not losing sleep over it, just thought I would bring it up.

Yeah, it’s really annoying.
Even some of the mods have edited posts and changed the full quote to something like:
“On what Professor X said…”
But yeah! What’s the reason for replying to the whole damn message? At least pick out the important parts to quote and respond to them. I hate long posts!

Well I think he gets mad at someone quoting the first post a few pages down. Well we’re still on the first page here so this is probably ok.
