Do you not know what quotation marks mean??? I put them there to indicate I was *quoting* someone else, and that I wasn't the original author.
"If you're going to quote someone here it's very easy. The program does it for you. What you did in no way suggests you were quoting SECOND."
Oh look, I just quoted myself from another post. Get the point dummy.

Jeez T.
Just because the website has a system for quoting people doesn't mean that supersedes the long established English language.
I'd think twice about calling somebody else a dummy when you are exhibiting dummy behavior yourself in the argument.
That being said, maybe the reason that Kiki didn't use the system quote there is because it wasn't actually Second that said that either. Second was quoting an author and it was part of this paragraph:
Quote:
In his new book, The Great Leveler: Violence and the History of Inequality from the Stone Age to the Twenty-First Century, the Austrian historian Walter Scheidel puts forth a depressing and thought-provoking thesis: The only thing that can really dent rampant and long-lasting economic inequality is violence.
Do Right, Be Right. :)

You think you are arguing against me. Instead you are arguing against the proper etiquette of quoting someone dummy. This is why people get an education. What kiki did is wrong. You don't quote someone and not inform the reader who it is you are quoting. Some here do it all the time.
I've seen SIG put things in quotes here and then argue against what she quoted. Funny thing is, she made up these quoted statements herself. She did this so she could pretend to make someone look stupid and herself superior.
People here do all kinds of things to confuse or make their point. They do it for many different reasons. They also intentionally misquote people here all the time. They argue points based on false and twisted concepts of anothers' post as well. Only your friends do that Jack. I'm talking about kiki, SIG and their sock puppets.
You'll argue anything without thinking it through won't you? It's what makes you someone to be ignored.

Trump Jr. Hinted at Review of Anti-Russia Law, Moscow Lawyer Says
A Russian lawyer who met with President Donald Trump’s oldest son last year says he indicated that a law targeting Russia could be re-examined if his father won the election and asked her for written evidence that illegal proceeds went to Hillary Clinton’s campaign.

She DID put it in quotes. She just didn't put it in the FFF.NET system quotes.
Anybody with half a brain would have known that Kiki didn't write that.
I think we've cleared up the confusion about it.
And LOL that Kiki and I are friends. What, are you new here?
No offense, Kiki.
Do Right, Be Right. :)

This is really hard to admit, but T has a point, several of them.
The rampant lack of attribution and unclear quotes gets quite confusing. Not to mention some posters replying BEFORE the quote they are REPLYING to. Like reversing chronological sequence.

At least you can separate out who said what when they reply above the quoted context, but I do get your point. I'm guilty of that myself at times. It's just that many times the quoted posts are just to long. If the response is at the top you can go to the quoted part being referred to instead of constantly having to read the entire post.
When you look at kiki's posts many many times they are a confusing mess. And much of the time SIGs' are made up or misquoted. If they won't clarify who they've quoted and quote them properly and accurately then the post should be dismissed as bogus.
Now, back to the countdown clock and news of the day shall we.

I was recalling that some sites include the date time of the original post being quoted. Very handy.

Yes, it's especially handy when dealing with people who are dishonest.
