Noticed recently someone quote a post and break it up,
They stated "sorry for breaking your post"
This has me thinking, I frequently break up a post iam quoting to keep it short, some can contain a number of posts and get quite long
So the question is does it bother you if someone quotes you and then breaks up your text |

No cos sometimes i ramble on and talk endless bollocks but occasionally amongst that will be a salient point..
as do others..
and it keeps the thread from looking like a rewrite of war and peace.. |

That was my mindset, but seeing an apology for doing it got me thinking is it advertantly annoying to some, |

It would only bother me if the context were lost and that led to misinterpretation/misrepresentation. It's never happened though andmost of my posts are irrelevant shite anyway  |

No.
Frequently I do it to clarify exactly which point I am responding to. I have even been known to re-write a post in order to clarify my understanding of it.
