I am rarely quoted but when I am quoted, it's usually someone giving me negative opinions. Last time I was quoted it was some damn berk trying to convert me to atheism for whatever reason. Quite frankly I'm glad I'm not quoted anymore

About every 10 posts. And the comment is generally a variation on "This.", so I guess I'm the voice of reason around here.
OBEY ME!

Not much.....?

I dunno really. Is it something that people actually keep track of?

When I do get quoted though it's usually either someone agreeing with/expanding on something I've said or telling me that I'm a horrible sociopath etc.

I don't normally post unless I'm responding to something stupid that someone has said...

...so yeah, usually quite a bit :)

About one every other post. Usually it involves statements that appear to be "controversial," but really is not. Actually, it tends to be the same people over and over again, because apparently I'm important enough for them to try and correct . I have mentioned several times that Bioware has been making the same since 1998, that Firefly got cancelled because no one watched it, and that I consider Jrpgs to be superior to western ones and the same people want to try and correct my opinions.

I am fairly certain someone wants to try and correct what I am saying now, but that is not going to work.

Well as an eccentric Millionaire Playboy, I make sure to grant everyone who quotes me a healthy sum of money, purely to feed my own ego.

Once on a blue moon, and I'm perfectly fine with that.

I normally don't say anything worth replying to. Every once and a while I might get into a small... disagreement with someone if I'm in a bad mood. But other than that I don't really have many conversations.

The most I ever got quoted was in that thread about that modern art piece that was destroyed by a cleaning lady.

It's a bit random.

I don't really post unless I'm feeling witty or bringing a particular point. And even then I quite often get quoted more on the more boring things, about 3 times.

On occasion. I seem to be getting quoted a lot in the past few days.

If you want to get quoted just have an opinion, instead of what everyone wants to hear.

Every now and then I get quoted. Some are good conversations and others are just a need for further elaboration.

All I know is I'm definitely not going to to get on a controversial discussion thread because the last one I got on lasted several hours until I was able to safely neutralize it.

Well, it happens, but seeing as I have not been here so long and my postcount is what you would expect there-of, then the % will probably dwindle abit... I prefer lurking really, unless I'm really bored or interested.

yay!! I'm broke :D

OT: a few times a week, don't really keep track, depends on what i say and where it's said an such.

I've gotten some good reply's though, i've won a couple threads (no Internets yet) gotten a few cookies and even :D had some one tell me i should work in the games industry for a rather bizarre concept for game additions.

I saw the title and wanted to post "not often enough T_T" in a joking manner. Thinking about it, though, I dread getting quoted. I'm not sure why, but most quotes seem to be from people who are severely pissed off by something I said that wasn't intended to offend anybody. It's gotten to the point that my first reaction to seeing there's a mail in my Quoted Inbox has become:"Oh, God. What did I do this time?" So, if anything, I guess I get quoted too often. Let the trolling ensue...
I feel that way a bit too, even though there's only been a small number of times I've actually posted something that would earn the ire of some other browsers on this site.

OT: I'm not particularly controversial (well, I am, but I don't post most of those opinions) and I'm not particularly funny (in text, you always need to spell out when something is satire or sarcasm) so it's very rarely that I'll actually be quoted. I've had a few debates that filled up my quote box and every now and then someone will quote me for something, but I generally post in threads that already have multiple pages (like this one) and since apparently only one out of every ten people (of which I am one) reads threads before posting, I hardly ever get quoted. I've been wanting to start a thread designed to see how many people actually read the OP/thread posts before posting themselves, though.

Also, wall o' text and misinterpreted posts. I have both of them.

Every once in a while I say something stupid/interesting enough to be quoted. Same post about a dozen times. So... When I DO get quoted. Holy shit.

Like when I said that my chemistry teacher says glass is liquid at room temperature... Loads of quotes.

We turnips have a word for you. Lagom. Basically okay in all aspects. Not too good or too bad.
