Hey Guys,
I've made quotes of quotes no longer allowed. This means if you quote a post where the poster quoted someone else and then wrote their reply, that initial quote will be ignored and only the posters reply will be quoted in your reply.
This basically stops posts were we have quotes inside quotes inside quotes a dozen times so threads can be read more easily. I hadn't seen this option before but I have now and think it's great.
I'm still working on trying to add the Location field on the initial registration page and make that required for new users so they atleast put a country or state or something.

Both changes are great. Knowing members locations is useful when responding to questions, and the elimination of nested quotes is very welcome (I've seen it implemented on other forums)--and think of all the bandwidth and storage expense that'll be saved!

...if you quote a post where the poster quoted someone else and then wrote their reply, that initial quote will be ignored and only the posters reply will be quoted in your reply...
When you hit reply on a message where someone quotes someone else, you onle get one quote, but actually all quotes are in the quote box, it just doesn't mention the names/nicks of the original posters.
Example:
DAS posts something, let's say: >This is a test<.
Lomag quotes DAS in his reply: Nope it isn't.
So, the quote of DAS is shown and under it Lomags new reply.
DAS posted Today at 12.00 pm in post 111111:
This is a test
Nope it isn't.
If now Iceman jumps in (Yes it is) and quotes Lomag, who qutoed DAS, it will appear a quote with both quotes, but with only Lomags name.
Lomag posted Today at 12.30 pm in post 111112:
This is a test
Nope it isn't.
Yes it is.
So, the text and the attachements are not getting less, it only adds confusion.
Lomag: Is there a way to have ONLY the last quote? Not all quotes in one quote box?
Lomag posted Today at 12.30 pm in post 111112:
Nope it isn't.
Yes it is.
