....which refer to previous posts or posters, but don't add anything to the discussion, e.g. "I agree with x", "What x said", or even "^^ This.". What's the point, other than to get your username on the screen or jump on a bandwagon? If you're going to the trouble of posting, why not contribute something? If someone's already said exactly what you think, there's no need to post! Aaargh!

AgadorSpartacus · 08/01/2014 16:10

And pros.

CeliaLytton · 08/01/2014 16:11

What they said

(Surely you knew this was going to happen Grin)

AgadorSpartacus · 08/01/2014 16:11

And Plenty.

AgadorSpartacus · 08/01/2014 16:11

Oh yeah and..

Fuck it.

ginslinger · 08/01/2014 16:11

I agree with Morris

LittleThorinOakenshield · 08/01/2014 16:12

I see the point. It lets the poster you agree with know that someone agrees with them and they are not talking into a big black hole.

I agree with ginslinger

I have nothing to add that hasn't been said already. YABU.

TheOneWithTheHair · 08/01/2014 16:13

What Thorin said!!

OvO · 08/01/2014 16:14

YABU, so very very unreasonable.

There is nothing better on MN than getting an, "I agree with OvO." Or whatever your name is. Grin

LittleThorinOakenshield · 08/01/2014 16:14

No ones ever said that before.

I am deeply touched. Grin

TalkativeJim · 08/01/2014 16:15

Yes, I agree.

Ohwhatfuckeryisthis · 08/01/2014 16:16

Just waiting for someone with more experience in these matters to come along, but showing my support in the meantime.

Nanny0gg · 08/01/2014 16:16

Oops.

Just did this. However, it said all I wanted to say (at the time) and as it was a grandmother's point of view (which is what had been requested a bit earlier), I felt I wanted to back it up and bring it back to attention.

So there you go.

Heartbrokenmum73 · 08/01/2014 16:16

TheOneWithTheHair · 08/01/2014 16:16

Glad to make you happy Thorin. Grin

Bowlersarm · 08/01/2014 16:16

I agree with LittleThorin.

RhondaJean · 08/01/2014 16:17

What all them said ^^

CeliaLytton · 08/01/2014 16:18

OvO was thinking of you yesterday! Or more specifically thinking, where is that poster with the username which looks like an owl? And here you are!

And as a double bonus, OP will be thrilled because I have added something new to the conversation Grin
