Quoting a previous post, even one that immedietly preceeds yours, is not always a bad thing. It can help in making your point more clearly understood, and as Director Tarsx points out it doesn't use all that much bandwith.
However Tbontob, I am not taking sides, but you could use a little bit of editing in what you quote. It's not nessecary to include the entire text of the Last 5 comments in the thread. This has an unfortunate effect on the formatting of the page because of the way the forum software indents nested quotes.
It's not even neccesary to include the entire text of post you are quoting. This can actually make the meaning of your post less clear. It would be better to quote only the cogent points to which you are responding directly.
EDIT: Although I know that you know this and are simply "Fyron baiting". This is a popular past-time in our little forum here, one that I have partaken in myself a time or two.
