2a. Quotation
The Best Practices for referencing an earlier post is to utilize the >implying operator followed by a brief summary of the ideas expressed therein.
2aII Quotation Marks
When a specific word or phrase is quoted and the >implying technique (see §2a) is not appropriate, it is considered Best Practices to use [M]``faggot quotes'' to offset the emphasized word or phrase from the rest of the post. Correct: ``Hello world'' Incorrect: “Hello world" Incorrect: "Hello world"
To Bestly Practisify one's post when mentioning someone who exists, enclose every instance of every name within {b bold tags}, no exceptions.
Examples:
- Xarn haxed my anus today.
- I had a dream last night wherein The Sussman taught me everything.
- Someone once told me that Erika is a bad boyfriend.
