Flexmoney Posted April 14, 2010 Share Posted April 14, 2010 When quoting a post from another member in a thread, you don't need to quote the pictures as well...almost all the time. Everybody knows what the pictures look like...because they are right there in the thread already. And, beyond taking up extra space repeating content...you kill the thread for those that are on slower internet connections! So, when you quote...delete the quoted pictures before you hit the button to post. Good karma will flow your way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GForceLizard Posted April 14, 2010 Share Posted April 14, 2010 Some people go overboad and include all of a large post in their quote. I've read the thread and only need a reminder, not repeating 7 inches of text. Try to think about your reply, it may not require the entire post.

-JQ- Posted April 14, 2010 Share Posted April 14, 2010 (edited) When quoting a post from another member in a thread, you don't need to quote the pictures as well... Delete the line of code that starts with [ i m g ] and ends with [/ i m g ] These are the "images" mixed into all the gobbly-dee-gook of the previous post. Extra spaces added Thanks for this post Flex...thought it many times but too lazy to post it Edited April 14, 2010 by hk_mtbr Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So there really is not a bandwidth issue. The other points do have value. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CSEMARTIN Posted April 15, 2010 Share Posted April 15, 2010 (edited) deleted. I was afraid Flex wouldn't see the humor in what I had done. Edited April 15, 2010 by CSEMARTIN Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Revopop Posted April 20, 2010 Share Posted April 20, 2010 Good call-out, Flex. I often check the forums on my phone (when I'm supposed to be working, like right now) and it's a royal pain having to scroll through all that extraneous gobbledygook.
