 When do I use this

  • Often when an something isn't too terribly long and is perfect just the way it's stated. All the formatting, details, and everything were made  by the user being quoted, not me.
  • Sometimes for other things, but mainly like just above.

 

Method 2, the direct Quote with a few changes

Details coming shortly, but here's an example

 
EuropaOB 's comment on my thread >>

The following is EuropaOB's reply on my thread, as he typed it and unedited:

 

Not sure if this is the right way to do this, but he I go:

Username: EuropaOB

Name of Block/item/ore: Sonic Panel

Description: Its the bit on the TARDIS console that produces the Sonic Screwdriver.

Lore/Brief Background: The Eleventh Hour and Hell Bent

How do you suggest we implement it: A block (simaler to the flight panel) that can repair the player's sonic screwdriver/make other sonic devices. Can also change the sonic screwdriver to do other things (maybe? To complicated?)

How does the player obtain it: Crafting.

Why should this be implemented: A) The TARDIS console barely has any functioning things (only the flight panel and monitor, plus some vanilla redstoning stuff)

Image(rough sketch/draft acceptable): N/A

Any other information: N/A

 

 

Where I added his information into the main thread

 

The following example is taken straight from my [Dalek mod Suggestion Compilation] Tardis Improvements (Scanners, Relative Coord Travel, Rasilicon, Duplicate Keys, Defenses...) post. This is what I put into my thread's main post after EuropaOB commented.

 

XIV.  Sonic Panel (Originally by Europa OB)

Name of Block/item/ore: Sonic Panel

 

Description: Its the bit on the TARDIS console that produces the Sonic Screwdriver.

 

Lore/Brief Background: The Eleventh Hour and Hell Bent

 

Uses [Reformatted and reworded a bit by Arc]:

  • It can repair the Sonic screwdriver (if durability is ever added to it)
  • It can be used to craft Screwdrivers (assuming that the crafting table will no longer be able to be used for this)
  • [Addition by Arc]: The Panel can change the Sonic Screwdriver's Design 
  • [Addition by Arc]: Handles will ask you to put your Screwdriver in this when you wish to add data to his Databanks
  • [Addition By Arc]: Will be where you plug in your screwdriver when you want to upload a path to the Tardis (I will add more information on this feature later)

 

How does the player obtain it: Crafting

[Addition By Arc]: Made with Otherdium

 

Why should this be implemented: A) The TARDIS console barely has any functioning things (only the flight panel and monitor, plus some vanilla redstoning stuff)

 

Original Reply by Europa OB: This link here

Note that I specified

  • This was not my idea
  • Which ideas I added in
  • A link directly to the original reply within this suggestion thread [the thread this quoted quoting is  taken directly out of] that had Europa's original unedited suggestion

Method 3, the "As mentioned here"

Format.

  • "Similar to [user]'s suggestion seen here [link]"
  • "Taking a few elements from user's post seen here [link]"
  • Building on [user]'s suggestion [link]

When is this acceptable and why should it be used?

  • Details coming soon

Method 4, the "My Version of..."

When is this used.

  • Same item, but COMPLETELY different use. And I mean a VERY, VERY different and completely unique use. 

 

Example of what I mean by VERY different

Tardis Protection Methods, the version I suggested for DWCM

Tardis Protection Methods, the version I suggested for the Dalek Mod

 

Method 5, "As Originally suggested by"

When is this used

  • Determining this still 

When do I use it?

  • Normally whenever someone replies a suggestion on my threads and the description is mostly typed myself or is an indirect quote with a lot of details added
  • Sometimes I jut use it whenever, but the above is one of the main times

 

 

 Notes:
  1. Don't do reposts. when unneccessary
  2. Ask the original People before using their ideas
  3. Mention if your idea is different than whoever posted it first 
  4. If your ideas are minor details, suggest them in the original poster's thread and he or she can work together with you to make a better suggestion
 

I like this. Maybe move it to the suggestions section?

lol just today someone had quoted me and changed what I said in their quote, may i suggest an addon saying not to change peoples quotes?

Well since that user has quoted your original message I can go back and edit that user's message to restore your original quote, if needed.

oh it was fine i was just suggesting adding that into this thread like"not to give false credentials" or something.

I support it ... it's annyoing people who maybe don't know what is the 'button' EDIT POST :(
