It's quite irritating when people quote lengthy posts in their entirety (for example see from this post onwards where it's been done thrice in quick succession). I've seen on other XenForo-based forums that in such cases beyond a point the bottom part of the quotes get hidden, with a link to expand and display them completely. Not sure whether it's an OOTB feature that needs to be enabled or requires a plugin, but please implement the same here.

I disabled compressed quotes by choice. Just because quote is hidden doesn't mean it's not there.

i am probably going to kill the quote feature completely no one seems to care about using them properly.

 

[Dave]

Killing it completely seems a bit of an overkill. Compressed quotes are what I was suggesting. Yes, sure the quotes will still be there, but at least not completely visible by default. That solves the problem, doesn't it? Those who wish to quote snippets still can, while people who blindly or ignorantly quote long posts won't end up irritating people scrolling through the threads.

 

[Sushubh]

useless quotes need to irritate people. otherwise the behavior does not change.

 

[Sushubh]
