I find it better than when they just quote and leave it blank.

So, the word This saves it from spamming?

Explain This to me.  Why is there a need to post EXACTLY what someone says as a quote, and then stick "This" as a single word reply to repeat what was said?  Why do it?  I don't get the concept.  How about saying you agree, and then adding a bit more of your own thought to it?  Even an occasional "I couldn't of said it better myself" with the quote, would be a change.

What are you doing by saying "I couldn't of said it better myself?"  You're doing something else than the people who are saying "this."

The whole point of quoting and saying "this" is not to add your own content to the thread but to re-emphasize the content you're quoting.  The less you say, the more emphasized the quoted content is.  It's essentially the difference between saying "I agree with this poster" and "Reread what this poster just said."
