I was thinking that there's some sort of block quote coding that sets the quote off in its own delineated block of text with a different colored or bordered background.
Italics will do. Thanks.
Ooops you’re right, my bad
What you were looking for was blockquote and /blockquote with the pointy things at each end
No color or border, that’s a html thingie beyond my abilities...
What does that link go to?
I don’t like Bing
Great. Thanks. Will try that next time.
Is that something like a Mortal Sin?
Q posts are not bad. They are complete BS. Someone is jerking everyone and fools accept it like is some Manna from Heaven.
Thanks for the link. Very enjoyable thread. Almost 400 responses and with no trolls!
----------------
two instances of the use of the word "savior," both lower case, in all 705 Q drops. The first YOU found by using Bing so oucould raise a STEAWMAN and get all upset and bothered, the second is this:
"US Military = savior of mankind." We will never forget.
Fantasy land.
God save us all.
Q
–––––––––––––––––––––––
106 times Q refers to God, with a capital "G". 37 times in a "God Bless. . . " someone or America,or Patriots, or our military. So much for your lying strawman, erroneously implying Q is promoting prayer to Trump, you disruptive sack of distortion.
Everything I could conceivably say about Q’s use of the word,’savior,’ I’ve already said. If you honestly and sincerely want to know my thoughts on the subject, go back and read what I’ve already posted. If you don’t want to know my thoughts, then *don’t* go back and read what I’ve already posted. Simple as that.
(Note: everything I wrote applies equally to the phrase: ‘savior of mankind.’ There is only one savior of mankind. Context matters. There is no qualifier included in the original statement.)
You *claim,* [falsely] that I’m a troll, and that trolls are verboten. Yet here you are, hounding me with a new round of toxic ad hominem, and pinging the mob while you’re at it.
It’s just as I stated in post 480. You desperately need people to hate. It’s an integral and vital component of this type of belief system.
Hence the frenzied cries of "hater" from a triggered liberal.
Simple and honest solution: stop trolling or stay off the thread. You've been caught multiple times applying double standards, spewing easily refuted misinformation, lying about others' posting within a couple of posts of their references post, ignoring verbatim refutation of your claims, and then mewling "Help, help, I'm being repressed" like the peasant in Monty Python and the Holy Grail. Oh, and D@mn Autocorrect.
Here is a thread I’d have never found if it weren’t for the constant ad hominems the Q-believers simply cannot resist sending my way. Still working my way through it, but it’s been very interesting and, in places anyway, hilarious, so far.

You and I are certainly of like mind on this one. I said the same thing weeks ago when this "Q" stuff started here on FR. Said then it was some attention hound using cryptic messages to try and suck in FR's otherwise good posters into some stupid scheme.
Even posted REMEMBERTODRINKYOUROVALTINE on a few threads and got roundly pummelled for that.
And guess what? Sure looks like you and I are right. Q's a troll. Always has been and it's interesting (borderline funny....) to see who the conspiracy theorist wannabe's here on FR are.
Bingo! Thanks guys for the sanest “Q” discussion I have seen!
Mostly because FR's been trolled like this in the past. Not sure if you were around for the "Deep in the Hurtgen Forest" scam that was a big thing here on FR "back in the day" when some of FR's best and brightest (and I mean that sincerely, not sarcastically..) were taken in by it and then had their reputations trashed both on and off FR. That whole incident also reflected badly on the posters of FR and by extension, FR itself.
I personally wouldn't want to see anything like that happen again as I have a healthy amount of respect for some of the folks I'm seeing being taken in by all this. Folks that I otherwise consider to be highly intelligent and often insightful that make me think about things I otherwise may not.
That's also why I tend to NOT post on these threads as I'm not "trolling" anyone with my handful of responses just trying to inject a healthy dose of skepticism here. And believe me, I'm a VERY healthy skeptic in this "Q" stuff.
More than a little myopic to believe that this is limited to FR. It’s certainly not.
You mean when you post complete dislike for Q posts, and later claim you liked Q?
No it’s nothing like whatever you think of as a mortal sin. It’s just something that shows you have no credibility.
The first site that I’m aware of that dropped Q off the face of the earth is The_Donald. That’s where I first read about Q. The_Donald posters—’pedes/centipedes—were on it from the moment it appeared on 4Chan. They posted the original predictions with the caveat that they/we would know in a matter of days if it was real or a LARP. The predictions failed, the ‘pedes moved on and they’ve only looked back once. That was to explain—from a technical POV—how the plane-window photo could have been created by a poster who never left their computer.
Personally, I’ve held every possible POV of Q. I’m more of a skeptic now than I was at the beginning. My experience with belief systems that can only stay afloat by attacking skeptics with ad hominems works against the overall likelihood of the theory being what it’s claimed to be.
For the record, The_Donald is no insignificant site. They currently show 569,075 members in the ‘official,’ count. Going on a year ago, though, the CEO of reddit [a moonbat Leftist] let slip that he admits, for advertising purposes, the fact that The_Donald had (at that time) well upwards of a million subscribers. They’ve grown steadily since then.
No, I’m just intelligent enough, and experienced enough, and have seen BS like this enough times, to know the whole thing is someone pulling people’s chains, and laughing the asses off as they do it.
If you want to see how people get hooked into believing all the “Q” BS, watch the movie “Being There.” It is a lesson in oft-repeated mass stupidity.
