Replying to Avatar corndalorian

We are all in agreement then. Quoting is meant more to draw more attention to yourself, instead of having a conversation with the OP. I don’t see why people are getting offended that I’m pointing out this behavior. If you want attention, quote. If you want to have a conversation, reply.

There's nothing stopping you from replying to the quote though. Quotes are a reply that engages the OP with the followers of the one that quotes.

I agree with you here slim. A reply engages you directly with the OP. A quote will engage OP with the quotes audience. Yes it also garners additional attention but engagement and attention tend to go hand in hand.

They're not mutually exclusive and the intent is what matters. Is the quoter simply trying to get cheap attention off the backs of someone else's note or are they facilitating engagement with a new audience? Both can utilize the same action but with different intents.
