Lazy users who quote others with no written reply, or just typing things such as "This" "+1" or building a quote tower.

No but seriously. If someone has expressed your same sentiments, why post it all again? Just quote it.
Now I see the secret of the making of the best persons.
It is to grow in the open air and to eat and sleep with the earth.
-Walt Whitman

A human being should be able to change a diaper, plan an invasion, butcher a hog, conn a ship, design a building, write a sonnet, balance accounts, build a wall, set a bone, comfort the dying, take orders, give orders, cooperate, act alone, solve equations, analyze a new problem, pitch manure, program a computer, cook a tasty meal, fight efficiently, die gallantly. Specialization is for insects.

I hate it when people quote me and add nothing towards it.
I sometimes say "this" to posts I agree with, but I try to add something onto it as well so I'm not completely lazy. Unless the thread isn't even worth devoting much time towards.

If someone has said what I want to say then I'm going to quote them. Don't like it? Get over it. Lol

I mean I can add a ^ or this if that would please you OP. If he/she shares the same view/opinion as me I'm going to quote it.

Well the goal of the thread is to gather people's opinions. So either way, you're getting what they think about the topic anyways.

Sometimes someones already said exactly what they were going to. The OP never appreciates someone taking the time to reword something already said anyway.

If topic is empty, like listing threads etc. or they are making points besides that, than it's nothing wrong with it.

Or make such statement with giant red letters in your sig.

I don't really care. It only gets obnoxious when the original post was asking for serious replies and had a well written out post but the community decided to troll him/her because he/she is a newbie.

Hmm I do it all the time when my opinion is the same as the person I'm quoting. I don't see a problem with it, it just saves a bit of time typing some reply that has already been said.

What is the point of saying something else entirely, if it's already been said? Especially so if it's some very blatant one liner.
