Tito wrote: Hey Kevin! Now it appears that when you want to post a reply to a poster that has quoted someone else, the reply you post only shows one quote. The quote of the person you clicked on..and the quote he was replying to doesn't show up. In other words, at least for me and what I'm doing, only one quote will show up unless I copy and paste..Is that confusing enough? Thanks.
That's by design so we don't have large nested quotes.  I can relax that to include two or at most three quotes but that's about it.  It gets irritating for people to keep requoting the same things to where there are 40 quotes.
We will be cruel to Pitt.  And through our cruelty they will know who we are.  And they will find the evidence of our cruelty in the disemboweled, dismembered and disfigured bodies of their brothers we leave behind us.  And Pitt won't be able to help themselves but imagine the cruelty their brothers endured at our hands and our boot heels and the edge of our knives.  And Pitt will be sickened by us.  And Pitt will talk about us.  And Pitt will fear us.

I know what you mean. After two or three quotes it becomes very hard to track who posted what. Two, maybe three tops would lend continuity and less confusion than more or less than that..I think...No big deal. Thank you.

We'll crank it up to three and see how that does.

That sounds good. I appreciate your customer service!  :D Other than excessive numbers of quotes I think it causes problems too when people are quoting enormous posts over and over when they should just delete and keep what the crux of what the topic is...just me..thanks again..

When I hit the "back" arrow it takes me to the previous page but will take forever to navigate off of that page. Whether I hit "home" or another tab it just takes forever. I haven't changed anything on my end.

Just put the worth while stuff up. If a player posts a funny tweet it gets posted by spd or another member in another thread anyway, it's not like we are going to miss it.

I had set the site to limit nested quotes so we didn't have a ton of quote boxes in each post.  There have been several times where this didn't work the way I had hoped so I have disabled the nested quote limit.  I ask everyone to use a little consideration when quoting text - if possible, don't quote 7 nested items to comment on the last one.  And please don't quote 14 paragraphs just so you can use the ROFLOL smiley. 

Thanks.

+1, "I agree" and other one word useless posts are also urged against. Not for any real reason other than I feel the uncontrollable urge to delete the post or replace it with cat pictures.
