Re: What is a "Quality" post?

Just a simple reminder, although a post may be short, there is no reason to say that it isnt a quality post. *sigh* the whole matter of a quality post in its purest form seems rather subjective in my opinion. Naturally theres the ease in being able to tell a post that contributes to the discussion with an idea or a comment that others will find interesting, as outlined in all the replies above, but whats to make one post better than another post if they ask the same thing in different styles? Although none of the posts are actually physically rated aside from reputation, it seems pointless and rather banal to me that we are constantly pushing for quality, but we often point out when a post isnt needed or it may not be saying the most insightful thing in the world. There isnt a need for that in my opinion. Like any internet board, CD has its ups and downs, but it remains as great a tool as ever for communication, but when the chips are down or one is making a quick response to something, there isnt always time to elaborate or put together an essay like topic. There is a lot to be said for brevity too.
