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! DUHHH.
Well, actually, that probably would be a good and often apropos interpretation, as the poster who gets QFPed is usually running off at the mouth to their own detriment. But to answer KappaFT2's question...it means Quoted For Posterity.

Quoting someone to respond to them and QFPing are different....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??
That's what i know QFP to be for - in case someone tries to reneg on something they said before.

Is QFP irrelevant in this case? No, its extraneous...Particularly on a Blackberry.
seriously. i mean, all that could be solved if there was a mobile version of GC. but that would require more $ to John. and ive actually gotten used to reading GC (and posting) on Blackberry.
