Sometimes when I'm bored or think I have been really clever or funny when I post a comment on a site, I like to go back and see if anyone has quoted me or commented on it. Does anyone else do that or am I just clinging to scraps that maybe someone will validate my existence on a website I don't even care about?

EDIT: I'm not only talking about on the escapist, I do it on sites like youtube and I-am-bored all the time

I quoted you for the lulz.

Anyway. I do that too (On the Escapist). Mostly when I've said something funny. Because its funny and I like having funny conversations.

I do get quoted a lot. So I guess it is win win for me.

I'm sure a lot of us do, especially when bored or procrastinating.
And you've been quoted now. Aren't I nice?

EDIT: Ninja'd on the quoting. Still, you did get an extra little automated message in your inbox.

I have a bad feeling that if this thread gets popular and people start doing what you've done, my inbox is going to be full of the "YOU'VE BEEN QUOTED!!" crap

Yeah, I do it sometimes. Both to see if people agree with me and to see if anyone argued against me so I can post a rebuttal.

I posted a comment on a youtube video I thought was quite witty, came back and low and behold, a bunch of people had thumbs up'd it.

I guess others agreed. Clearly they have an eye for their betters.

Yes, especially when I think I've been really clever or funny. It's like an obsession.

I do that a good few times. Mostly because I've nothing else to do and am simply bored. I'd be in this computer chair anyway, so why not?

I would have quoted you but I couldn't be bothered to do such a lazy thing like move a cursor over a button and click it.

OT: Sometimes I do. I have quote notifactions[sp?] on so I always know when I've been quoted.

And now for something completely different.
