We analyse the usage of quotes in forum.rpg.net, the largest online forum on tabletop roleplaying games. Quote usage appears pervasive and surprisingly consistent over time and users; it seems to have a role in aiding intra-thread navigation; and it reveals an underlying "social" structure in a community that otherwise lacks all trappings (from friends and followers to reputations) of today's social networks. This is the first work to investigate community structure and interaction through the lens of quotes in an online forum.
