Please stop saying 'this'. Just reply with your comments. Thank you.


not this. 'this' is a shortcut to 'i concur' or any other phrase meaning agreement which would be in the comment anyway. isn't it shorter to just say 'this'?


Shorter doesn't automatically equal better. Keep the abbreviations where they belong: text messages. All online message board communication seems to be devolving slowly into text message speak and I don't think it is a good thing.


There is the 'upvote' button for that.
