	New quotes for the new server please. Support Apolyton, buy Civilization: The Boardgame

OK, we've lost a lot of the old quotes apparently, so please make a suggestions list and maybe Marko will take notice.

Put any old ones you remember with love, and any new ones you think should be remembered with love.

edit by markg:
quotes should be in this form

code:

quote without " or '
  -- source (if there is one)
%

I'd like to see more quotes from SMAC. I remember that when Markos first asked for quotes, some people suggested SMAC as a good source, but only a few of them were actually implemented.

I remember from the last 'quotes' thread, Mark asked to use the "code" tags.

True - it makes it quicker for Marko to actually use them (should they be found suitable)

	Put an end to popups!

The Code and PHP Tags

If you want to post some programming source code, or perhaps some ASCII art, which would require a non-proportional font, you can use the [code] tag to achieve this. For example:

[example deleted, although it was kinda amusing to make everyone read a pop-up]

This would produce:

$myvar = "Please post all quotes using the code tags";
for ($i=0; $i<10; $i++) {
echo $myvar."\n";
}

Hope that makes it all clear

How'd you get the box to pop up? It doesn't work for me

PHP:


$myvar = "Skywalker is Great!";

for ($i=0; $i<10; $i++) {

echo $myvar."\n";

}

Two damn pop-ups!!!!!!

Please don't do that guys. It's really f**king annoying. It may also get you banned.

Some people set their style so they don't get pop-ups from 'poly (at least, as few as possible). We don't need you creating additional ones.

Well I was going to suggest that we should take some of the quotes from the Demotivators Thread, but seeing all those pop-ups makes me realize this thread isn't going to last long.

A few Bill Gates quotes:

quote: "I believe OS/2 is destined to be the most important operating system, and possibly program, of all time. As the successor to DOS, which has over 10,000,000 systems in use, it creates incredible opportunities for everyone involved with PCs." -- Bill Gates - OS/2 Programmer's Guide "The Internet? We are not interested in it" -- Bill Gates, 1993 In response to Java: "Anybody who thinks a little 9,000-line program that's distributed free and can be cloned by anyone is going to affect anything we do at Microsoft has his head screwed on wrong." -- Bill Gates "Microsoft Products are Generally Bug Free" -- Bill Gates "There are people who don't like capitalism, and there are people who don't like PCs, but there's no one who likes the PC who doesn't like Microsoft." -- Bill Gates

If you use "reply with quote" you will see the JAVASCRIPT that WoA put in his original post that caused the pop-up. CP already got rid of his.

Why is there now a pop-up that says "Please post all quotes in code tags"?
