DM, not that it is an issue (maybe it is!) but do you have a way to set it so that when replying it only quotes the last response by default? I've seen other invision boards do it so I was just wondering. Could cut down on the clutter at times...which I am also guilty of!

of all mascots far and wide.IT IS VERY HARD TO WIN ONE STANLEY CUP, FORGET ABOUT THREE... and maybe it's high time some of you actually APPRECIATED THAT instead of treating it like it's some flipping birthright because for some random reason you rooted for the damn Devils!!!!!

Yeh that would be really cool if you could do that. Sometimes it gets annoying when people will quote a message that has 4 other quotes in it.

Yer outvoted.
Now see I wanted to quote what Satan's Child said and Don. Sometimes if you don't have both replies, your reply doesn't make sense. But I only got what Don said in my reply?

Well, the problem is that sometimes there are six or seven, even up to 10 quotes in a post...and after all that quoting, the post itself will be a simple two or three word post. It's quite annoying and a whole lot of clutter. We either clean up the quoting or ask people not to quote so much. Right now it seems easier to use the filter.

Yeah I know. I always edited out the parts of quoted posts that I didn't need. Eh there's always cut and paste.
