sammyk Posted October 31, 2005 Share Posted October 31, 2005 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! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thefiestygoat Posted October 31, 2005 Share Posted October 31, 2005 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. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LizDevil30 Posted November 11, 2005 Share Posted November 11, 2005 Yer outvoted. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> 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? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Weekes Head Posted November 11, 2005 Share Posted November 11, 2005 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? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> 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.

LizDevil30 Posted November 11, 2005 Share Posted November 11, 2005 Yeah I know. I always edited out the parts of quoted posts that I didn't need. Eh there's always cut and paste. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sammyk Posted November 12, 2005 Author Share Posted November 12, 2005 Perhaps you're right...as I don't see any extra tags...I'll say this though it is not nearly as extreme as...EXTREME TABLE TENNIS! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RowdyFan42 Posted November 12, 2005 Share Posted November 12, 2005 (edited) Perhaps you're right...as I don't see any extra tags...I'll say this though it is not nearly as extreme as...EXTREME TABLE TENNIS! Y'know, I was thinking about that when I was writing the post... should've put it in. Okay, I figured it out. It can handle up to ten different quote sections. After that, it breaks.

StarDew Posted November 12, 2005 Share Posted November 12, 2005 Sammy...in your extreme post, I was wondering about the lil arrow to the right of each section...I tried clicking on one and it brought me back to the original post of the quote...wonder if it was because you used that quote= thingie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
