use logic and commene sense
The logic and common sense comes to
play on your part when you see that every
reply under a topic is not directed towards the
person above it or else it would be impossible
to reply to the Original poster without directly
quoting the Original poster. That would render
the system we call a Forum and its reply features a
almost useless. However, this is why they have
the Quoting feature. If you would perhaps want to
reply to another poster and not the Original poster
you can press the quote button.
By now we have acknowledged that Chessnuff
knows how to quote to reply to others without the
confusion. Since you on the other hand just learned
of this information, you shall find it useful in the future
so as not to begin pointless off-topic arguments (flooding
the threads) caused by your lack of understanding; which
is highlighted by the common sensibility of this post for
your behalf.
Now that you learned how to quote, we can now
be educated on how to modify our posts so that we
aren't flooding a thread with several consecutive posts
that contain very few words. On your post,
next to the quote button, there is a selection called
"modify". To modify means editing, or changing. In
that you may make additions or correct mispellings such
as the word "common".
Use this information to be less belligerent and more
diplomatic towards your peers, especially if you are in the
wrong.
