Re: Forum Discussion/Suggestion Thread
The rules about pyramid quotes and quoting the previous message were removed intentionally. The only rule about quoting that remains is one about quoting images and videos.

Thanks for the answer supersobes.
It's not that I pretend to abuse the change, but it's good to have a bit extra flexibility in that matter.

Regarding the same, quoting of codeboxes are still banned on the new rules, i wonder if that's why they usually carry a lot of text and thereof can load up the pages even more than pyramid quoting?

Re: Forum Discussion/Suggestion Thread
Our predecessors actually tried to remove the quote rule before, but a forum poll suggested members wanted to keep it.
This time we decided to just remove it. Less work for moderators, less upset people who don't read the rules too.

Excessive quoteing are a mess, pyramid quotes is hell and ignored by most users, precise quoting is nice almost god send compared

Why not autostrip quotes deeper than 2 levels and quotes of the entire preceeding message in the forum software and throw an edit mark "edited by automoderator"?Mohegan13 wrote:Our predecessors actually tried to remove the quote rule before, but a forum poll suggested members wanted to keep it.

Why not just delete the quote feature altogether.

That wouldn't be that bad with the tagging feature in place.
But thanks for answering my question above

Any measure has a countermeasure
