To be fair they both are "spambies".

That's why I knew where to find them, lol. 1 from each of the discussion boards, I literally opened 1 thread on each, kinda sad how easy it was to find "Legendary" accounts to fit the bill. That speaks more to the fact that there is no reason to assume based on rank the quality of a member. You actually have to look beyond the rank to see their worth, goes both ways.

The worst case I've come across (and I don't have a link) was one where a person was applying for a position in a signature campaign and quoted the entire OP of the campaign thread. And I'm sure the example I'm thinking of isn't the only time someone has done that.

I wonder if they got accepted. Roll Eyes

I always enjoy that when it's an ANN thread or a long OP review or guide in the mining sections. Generally ends in cramping of the finger trying to scroll through.

We know that the OP revisited the thread, but I wonder how many of the posters that I merited have checked back.

I'm sure a couple of them will be delighted as I do believe it was the first merit for at least one of them, and for 3 others it's a large percentage of their merit received to date. If even 1 of them learned to format posts better I'd call it a win.

I used to use the -snip- a lot and do sometimes, but I generally don't bother anymore. I just cut the quote to what I need and assume people will have read it or can follow the quote back like a link.
