Please remember that this is a forum, not a chat. Each post takes up considerable screen space, and discussions are browsable for years, or even decades, after they take place (this is not a bad thing!). So, when posting, please consider the person reading your discussion in a few hours, or a few days, or a few weeks, or even a few years. The future reader should be able to understand what is being discussed, and not have to wade through pages of nonsense.
- With some exceptions (see below), double-posting (or triple-posting etc.) is not allowed. In other words, if you have the last post in a topic, you generally should not make another post after it until somebody else replies. If you break this rule, your posts will be merged (with corresponding reduction in post count) and Tings will be deducted as a penalty.
- If you have something to add to your message, you can edit the existing post using the icon to the top-right of it that resembles a pencil.
- If you want to quote multiple posts in your reply, you can use the quote buttons in the "topic review" below the editor when you are initially making your post (or else just manually copy-paste the text inside quote tags).
