I would also suggest you to not add @Royce name or mention him in topics related to the reputation board. He's one of the most respected managers of this forum and mentioning his reply in your thread without his consent isn't a good step.[...]
This is the first time I heard that we need author's consent to quote their post and/or to mention them. I'll be damned. I've mentioned a lot of users and quote their posts, almost all of them are done without prior asking if they're OK with my action.
What Royse said above is that he'll appreciate people to not weaponize his post, since he's currently not interested to be dragged into forum's drama known as Reputation Board.
