Default When you "quote" a post . . .

Anyone but me feel that when you feel the need to quote someone's else's post you should not be allowed to edit the same? I think you should be forced to quote the post as it was, no edits to make it shorter, no caps, no bold type, etc. And yeah, it's winter and I'm venting to a certain extent. Ride safe, when you can.

I like wieners.
I don't know what you're talking about, didn't know you could change a quoted post.

I dont because a lot of times I only want to make a comment on one topic in their post.

Sometimes its good to just be able to quote small parts of a post instead of the whole lot. and edit it as you see fit.
