[QUOTE="zubenelgenubi, post: 3775527, member: 63706"] Instead of arguing your clearly incorrect position, you should let one of the grown ups explain to you how to do it properly. This website, along with many other forum sites out there, and even other technological communication methods, have a set of rules that fall outside of plain english grammatical rules. Almost everyone who uses this forum understands how those rules work instinctively through interacting with other people on the forum. Others, like yourself, have to have them spelled out for them. Here's how the post in question should have gone in order for everyone reading it to have been able to make sense of what you were saying, and who you were saying it to. " [USER=74655]@Imbunker[/USER] as you can see from the above, after you give the company roughly 14 years of your life, you'll be equal with the CPI-adjusted starting pay of the gray-hairs lecturing you about voting." It is understood that by using the quote feature you are alerting the person you are quoting. When you alert someone, everyone understands that you are addressing them. If that is not the case, you need to take the extra steps to ensure that the person you are addressing, and everyone reading along, knows you are addressing them and not the person you are quoting. That's what the @ symbol allows you to do. [/QUOTE]
