Many of you have noticed that many users always reply with quoting one of the entire posts whitin the current thread for no reason really ...
I wonder if there is any way to restrict quoting to max number of chars or perhaps issue a little warning (just to annoy) so they can change their habits ? Or maybe rearranging buttons (which I suggested right after that major upgrade) would work ...
Thanks for reading and sharing your ideas.
Doesn't bother me.Quote:

It probably just depends on the member on whether they want to put the effort into editing the quote to just the part they are referring to . With the Quick Reply function, the quote issue is probably increased since you can not edit a Quick Quote without going to the "Go Advanced" button. ;)
This is more effort and what your referring to, but there is nothing that we can do to force some kind of limit other then the 10,000 character limit on a post. But if they only want to say one thing and quote a 9,000+ quote then they can. ;)Quote:

Its not hard to do a full quote and then delete the verbiage that your not needing. ;)
Sure it is not too hard but nobody does it not to mention they don't know the difference between REPLY and REPLY WITH QUOTE options ...
I rarely reply to a mile long posts so that's why I created this thread but I guess it's not going to go anywhere - just like any other suggestion ... :rolleyes:
