Haha, well yeah about why people get pissed at how someone posts. But I don't see why that's a big deal. Maybe I haven't been on GC long enough to care, but why read the post if it bothers people?

Yeah, I can see that.

Me three. :p

I find this hilarious as I just QFPd something. :cool:

Fiber? Hahahah I'm sorry. I'm so inappropriate...

Aha! I found the culprit. It was who I thought it was.

Yes, it's annoying.

Quoting someone to respond to them and QFPing are different. I think if I know what's being discussed, the person(s) doing it are actually writing "QFP" in their response, even if someone else already has.

Maybe they're playing backup for us, in case the original QFPer gets a ray of sunshine up their ass and deletes their post out of pity??:p

I haven't the slightest clue who you all are talking about, but is this whole thread really about one person? Or is it a trend that needs to be stopped before it picks up more steam?

If it's multiple people then I get it. I am generally annoyed by people who quote without needing to for context, because it clogs up the thread.

But I'm starting to get the feeling this is all about a single person, in which case - why don't you just directly ask him/her to stop?

One person does it all of the time, but then others follow suit. Sometimes their answers are, "Go Baked Alaska".
Is QFP irrelevant in this case? No, its extraneous.

I'm simply venting. If someone can over-QFP to the point of an Echo (my new word, thanks to Senusret), I can vent in a QFP thread. And, after you have read enough threads, you might see what I mean.


Particularly on a Blackberry.

The reason it gets annoying is because if you're reading through an entire thread it's tedious to figure out what's meant to be read and what's just a space filler. Quoting a part of a previous post can be helpful, but it regularly happens that a recruitment thread will be LONG and quoted in full over and over again. No, it's not the end of the world. Just annoying. I think the reason it happens is because some people click QUOTE instead of REPLY as their method of posting. To me, the only reason to Quote an entire previous post is, by definition, to make sure this thread doesn't get deleted once the OP comes to his/her senses.

But hey, that's me. Do what you'd like, and I'll just scroll faster.

I swear, it's worth checking back in here from time to time just to see what Sen's signature is. Never fails to make me L.O.L. :)

What is QFP?

They doth not! Tis I! *waving*

I rather sheepishly admit, when I first saw "QFP", it was on some thread where someone was complaining about something (maybe the recruitment thread?!), I thought it meant Quit F'ing Posting. As in, "shut up already". I thought, my goodness, they really pull no punches on here!:eek: DUHHH.
