You should've left it quoted. People delete posts all of the time and those of us who missed the OP don't know what people are responding to.

To go along with someone in the "what do you feel like saying" thread, you could've left it quoted but instead of "QFP" found a way to respond to the topic. The "QFP" line tends to only work when more than one person thinks the thread will not end well. This is obviously not one of those threads--although I believe that most topics brought to GC are best handled without GC opinions.

Exactly. I didn't see anything wrong with the OP's post. It seems like more and more that people are using QFP just to be assholes to newbie GCers.

The difficulty of reading tone on the internet comes into play here. Sometimes a QFP is just a QFP and not a snark or asshole move in and of itself. Topics that we KNOW are going to have a lot of comments because of their controversy or topic are going to be the most likely to disappear.

If it's just a veiled QFP by quoting and saying something banal, there's not really any improvement it just "looks" nicer.

I never said you were implying that. I was simply saying that I agreed with you and then added my own opinion onto it.
