I'm afraid quoting yourself isn't allowed, sorry!

Here's the new thread for posting quotes, with the usual rules:

  • Do not quote yourself
  • Do not quote comments/posts on LW/OB

I've been thinking of starting a "quote yourself" thread.

Or a "quote yourself, or quote comments/posts on LW/OB" thread?

We have those periodically. They are limited to one per quarter by executive order, but they are not popular enough to sustain that frequency.

ETA: Here's the relevant tag: http://lesswrong.com/tag/lwob_quotes/

I agree that "do not quote yourself" is probably not a necessary rule for those threads.

I'm really sorry!

I forgot to wait 70 years and tell somebody to quote me in order to share a little piece of information with the world, my fault :)

It's funny that I've just proved that is worst to submit a wrong comment than actually not submitting any (as somebody is discussing in another thread).

Thanks for the punishment and again sorry guys, next time I'm finding those rules, wish me luck... :)
