>greentext

Ever since the implementation of threaded replies, the quote function that came with WP-Comment Remix seems to have lost its purpose. As such, I've decided to revamp it to fit the nature of this blog's personality, if you would, by introducing >greentext. Oh boy...

For the less informed, >greentext, which was originally meant to serve as a way of quoting someone on a particular imageboard, saw its usage evolve into in a mildly humorous and witty manner of discrediting comments until some less-than-intelligent contributors missed the point and went straight to wording everything with "implying" because they couldn't think of any other way to word their rebuttal. Now every troll and butthurt contributor uses it as a crutch every time they disagree with something.

You can now replicate that asinine form of retorting through this easy-to-follow walkthrough!

First, pinpoint the comment you wish to greentext...

Next, use the threaded (Reply) to bring up the comment box directly underneath comment and click Quote to highlight it.

Because the comment has been already >greentext'd by default you can utilize the :roll: emoticon to react to it right away, though if you wish to be a smartass, why not give Implying a go instead! All you have to do is make note of the logical fallacy presented in the comment; In this example, Panther insinuates that Sora no Otoshimono's Nymph is inferior to Ikaros and Sohara solely due to his blatant disdain for lolis.

The end result. Alternatively, you could use it to "fix" someone's statements as you please, but the sky's the limit, really.

Admittedly, >greentext is nothing more than a stylized quote feature, since I really did just implement it so Panther and I can poorly troll one another much easier. Of course, everyone else is more than welcome to toy with it :lol: If you still feel the need to properly quote someone, the one built into the WMD editor in the comment form still works fine.

    When I think of “greentext”, I start to feel bad for Kyonko, instead of thinking of imageboards.

    Long live the queen.

    @Jesus159159159 – wait, hold on, I’m not doing it right… it doesn’t have that “>” thing. =( you need a better tutorial cause I’m stupid. You should, like, draw with MS Paint, that usually solves everything
