I think you might be trolling, but I think it's just a case of confusion. Let me give it a go.
If you bother reading this, Fusion, what you are doing is double posting. You know, posting twice in a row. That is where you make a post, then make another post. Hence the "double." It can also be viewed as posting, then posting again before anybody else has a chance to post.
It is against the rules because it takes up unnecessary space and messes with your total post count. Which is to say, it is generally frowned upon by the community here at SNAFU becuse it's distracting and annoying, sort of like the taboo against
colored text. Also, people don't like it because it can be a little bit confusing, especially when two people have similar avatars or names.
In the future, I would recommend you say everything you want to in a single post. If you think of something you want to add later, every post you make has an "edit" button in its upper right corner, right next to your quote button, directly across from where it displays your name and the title of your post (in this case, the title is "Re: The Last Gasp").
If you don't know how to multi-quote (quote more than one person in a single post), start your post by clicking "quote" next to the first post you want to quote. After the quote shows up in your reply window, scroll through the summary of posts shown below this new reply window to find the second post you wanted to quote. This may be a little difficult for you, since the posts on this page are in reverse order and no avatars are shown. If it proves too much, click the quote button for the first post you wanted to quote, highlight the entire quote, right click, and select the "copy" option. Afterwards, hit the back button on your browser. Click the quote button for the second post you wish to quote, and when the reply window opens this time, you can right click and select paste. This will copy over the first quote, and then both quotes will be available to you.
Tl;dr: Post once. Multiquote or edit to avoid this issue.
Edit: Look, I used the edit button. Just wanted to say it's important to read everyone's posts before posting yourself, it helps prevent you from repeating something that has already been said plenty of times and stops you from looking like an ass.
