Archived [ARCHIVED THREAD] - The "Fixed It For You" Quote Manipulations Are Problematic
Posted: 1/3/2007 7:54:32 PM EDT
I really dislike it when people quote me, then strike some of my words inside my quote, and add their own words inside my quote.

They then type "Fixed it for you" as their contribution outside my quote.

Problems arise a few pages later.

Readers see my manipulated quote, and may attribute the words of another to me.

So; quote me all you want.

But please don't use the "Fixed it for you" method.

And I realize what I want doesn't mean shit to anyone...so party on.

Who is this Backstop guy think he is??

If he thinks that hilarity will ensue if topics are edited, he has another thing coming!

You are thinking like a liberal.

You are blaming the people doing the fixing, not the dipshits who can't read or follow a coherent thought then attribute something to you that you didn't say.

I like monkeys though. They are cute and furry and tasty.

So; quote me all you want.

But please don't use the "Fixed it for you" method. Use beer! And porn! And maybe both at the same time!

And I realize what I want doesn't mean shit to anyone...so party on Wayne. Party on Garth


Fixed it for you.
