Butter I'll discuss this one with you bud. <3
Quotes should not be counted, because they are not your words. The words there are for you to type, and while you are right that there are some short post that "can" just agree with a statement and not harm the conversation, its also possible to just agree in 15 words, here I'll do it for you.
Positive: Butter I see what you are trying to saying there and I completely agree with it.
Negative: No butter, I honestly just can't agree with what you're saying, it doesn't make sense to me.
As for the Pictures now. Saying you can use pictures for your word count is like giving someone that doesn't know how to fight a double sided sword. While he has a chance of cutting something he also has a chance of cutting himself, and the fact that he's new to it means he'll most likely cut himself. Pictures can be great and all and I've seen Yaysian use them pretty well, but there are some people that would abuse that system and just post stupid shit. So the system of 15 words plus is still the most "effective" system at the current moment that leaves no space for error.
