highlanders Posted July 30, 2008 Share Posted July 30, 2008 In some forums, when you quote somebody, you only quote *them*, not the people they have quoted. It would be nice if tif had this, atleast as an option. It's annoying to have to manually remove other people's quotes that are not relevant. 2480+ total Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dsavi Posted July 30, 2008 Share Posted July 30, 2008 I don't know, I don't really find this a problem. What I do find a problem is the max nested quote count is only 3. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pan_Nx Posted July 30, 2008 Share Posted July 30, 2008 The biggest problem with quotes, like dsavi said, is the quote count. I would really like to see that upped to 10 or so. I guess your actual suggestion would be nice to have though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dsavi Posted July 30, 2008 Share Posted July 30, 2008 On a side note, when we were still with PHPBB2, the max was something like 30 and we did fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D. V. Devnull Posted July 30, 2008 Share Posted July 30, 2008 Let's see if we can get Pure_MageUK to fix all that up, then? I do think it would be nice to have options for all of this in our user preferences and such. Then we would honestly never have to deal with anyone being upset over it ever again. :thumbsup: ....... I can say I've had a few headbangs over a max of 3 levels while quoting lately. :wall: ~Mr. D. V. Devnull and normally with a cool mind.(Warning: This user can be VERY confusing to some people...

The Observer Posted July 30, 2008 Share Posted July 30, 2008 Yeah, I find this very confusing. Sometimes, when I try to remove a quote, I end up messing up the whole post. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D. V. Devnull Posted July 30, 2008 Share Posted July 30, 2008 Yeah, I find this very confusing. Sometimes, when I try to remove a quote, I end up messing up the whole post. TIP: Treat your quote strips like HTML code, and check the levels carefully each time that you do strip a quote from your reply. :thumbup: ~Mr. D. V.

Turtlefemm Posted July 31, 2008 Share Posted July 31, 2008 Yes.. the 3 quote limit is pretty restrictive. We're discussing it now. 8-) ~Turtlefemm No one needs to get their ass on their shoulders about this--the_tallest1"Talent hits a target no one else can hit; Genius hits a target no one else can see."-- Arthur SchopenhauerMy deviantart gallery --- Turtlequirks Zazzle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Turtlefemm Posted August 1, 2008 Share Posted August 1, 2008 Nested quotes have been increased from 3 to 7. That should ease the frustration on that pretty well. : ~Turtle No one needs to get their ass on their shoulders about this--the_tallest1"Talent hits a target no one else can hit; Genius hits a target no one else can see."-- Arthur SchopenhauerMy deviantart gallery --- Turtlequirks Zazzle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've had one or two times when the 3 quote limit prevented me from posting how I wanted to. Agreed. I've been having some of the same, both before and after the forum rollbacks. Definitely glad to have this problem fixed. :thumbsup: ... Now to just make sure I don't abuse this new-found freedom by accident, as it is a freedom I need, but not one I wish to overuse. :oops: ~Mr. D. V.
