Quote

Actually, I kinda liked the other way for the backroom. It's often more useful for me there to be able to quote quotes in order to put certain points in context.

Just me, though. It takes no real effort either way.

must agree here...

I want to try to be the conservative this time, let's stick with traditions that has been built up for generations by smart people before us, they couldnt have been wrong. Let's keep the old system

I like this system. But it would be useful if it said who is being quoted. Then you'd remember what their post was in the topic, but this way, you have to press "Show" just to see who is being quoted.

Not sure if I worded that very well, so say if you don't understand.

It does. Right next to the Show button it says whose quote it is or whether it's just a quote. It does that for the quote tag, this is a general use [ex][/ex] tag.
It just serves as illustration to show what it looks like. I better don't just change the quote tag for a minute.

This is great to shorten the length of the pages, nice job .

Personally I like the old style, but it would be nice if people only quoted the pertinent bits of a long post.

In the past, we saw quoting quoted quotes. After scrolling for several seconds in those posts there was a response: lol.

This board is a bit 'smarter': it doesn't include old quotes when quoting.

I'm all for the new system...

You can do manually.



I recall there is a multi quote option somewhere.

Multiquote added. Push the new multiquote button for all posts you want to include (it works like a toggle) and then Post Reply.

Enjoy.

Hmm... I tried the multi-quote in a post. Weirdly, it remembered a toggle from anther page at another board (this very page here at the watchtower). Is that intended? It may prove troublesome.
