The Random Quotes page, needless to say, displays a random selection of quotes from the archive. If less than 40 viewable (untagged) quotes are archived, all will be shown, in arbitrary order of course. Otherwise, 40 will be shown at random. Pretty simple!

Alt. Random behaves similarly to Random Quotes, with the exception that it filters out all lengthy or excessively long quotes.

As great as some of the large quotes here are, sometimes it can be tedious scrolling past huge walls of text just to skip them. Alt. Random alleviates this problem for anyone who may prefer shorter ones.

Alt. Random Classic View mimics the aesthetic style of bash.org. Other than that, it holds no significance on its own.

All Quotes displays, well, all viewable quotes from the archive in a list-type format. When the total quote count exceeds 30, pages are generated to maintain things in an organized fashion. Just browse on through at your leisure!

The Filter Quotes page allows you to select which quotes you would like to see based on rating and length criteria. If you only want to see quotes rated higher than 9.0, or if you would rather check out quotes only longer than, say, 5 messages, you can filter them accordingly.

You can also choose to only view quotes lower than a certain threshold, so if you really care to see quotes rated 1.0 or below, or 3 messages or less, go right ahead. Unfortunately you cannot only view quotes at a certain rating level or number of messages, because I'm lazy and refuse to implement that.

Submit a Quote allows you to send in quotes on your own. That's pretty much it! Though if you need a more detailed explanation on how to do this, check out the submission tutorial on the About page.

The FAQ page is the page you're on right now. Need I explain its purpose?

The About section details the Quote Archive as a whole. It's more of summary on the basic ideas behind it everything.

You can rate quotes by simply clicking on one of the 1-10 number icons on each quote bar. Once you do so, the vote is instantly saved, though you have to refresh the page or view the quote again to see the result. Remember, you can only rate a quote once...unless your IP changes, in which case I can't do shit.

In addition to the regular list view most of the quote pages use, you can actually click on quote links (sitting right above the quote itself) to view quotes individually. Not anything spectacular, but at least it's possible. The more you know!

At the moment you can't really do a whole lot with quotes once they're submitted. In the future, I may choose to include such features as flagging/reporting, or...other things. However, my goal is to retain simplicity here.
