General Spoon Posted January 25, 2009 Author Share Posted January 25, 2009 A question: What is quote stripping? If you quote someone, the quotes they have in their post are stripped out. Go ahead, try quoting this post and see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord Raven Posted January 25, 2009 Share Posted January 25, 2009 It makes the post you're quoting a hell of a lot more friendly to read, though. And you can easily click the link back to see what the quote THEY'RE responding to was, anyway :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Metal Rabbit Posted January 25, 2009 Share Posted January 25, 2009 It's so people don't make massive, stupid pyramids of quote boxes and possibly stretch the page. At least, that's what I'd think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can't that just fall under punishment for spam? In general, I find stacking quotes more helpful than not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

True enough, when you jump into a topic midway, it can be better the just read pertinent info to the last posts in quotes, instead of clicking links back and catchinginfo backwards.

Rei Posted January 30, 2009 Share Posted January 30, 2009 It makes it so the posts aren't gigantic, plus, most of the time you're only responding to what that one person said. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rei Rei Posted January 30, 2009 Share Posted January 30, 2009 Also, quoting gigantic posts that are just above yours is kinda unnecessary. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
