Sandman77 Posted June 8, 2013 Share Posted June 8, 2013 hello! Just want know your opinion, about the endless quoters in every topic! At the moment my notebook have rtechnical problem, Iam only online with the iPhone, when I read long topics 20 or hundred page, I would say around 30 procent of the topic is copy and quote of other people, sometimes more then 3 time on on page! I would also recommended to split big postings when it have more then 500 entry! A smartphone like non quote version Would make the daily tv online season more comfortable! My finger getting pain , when I must scroll down to 50 quoters over 100 page on the smartphone! I loose time, and it's ineffective usage! My idea limit the possible quotes to 3 or 4 line only, then the total overview and Usability is much better! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ghworker2010 Posted June 8, 2013 Share Posted June 8, 2013 Its lucky your not a fussy person that asks too much. We wouldn't want OP to get a sore finger now as that would be the end of the world. I think the owners of TV.com should allocate new funds in the budget to re-write the code for this software and pay for all the Software Testing etc and implement the above changes. Dream on...

Popular Post impulse Posted June 9, 2013 Popular Post Share Posted June 9, 2013 (edited) In the good old days (before the last update- a couple of months ago), you could quote one or two sentences from a post and leave the rest of the 500 word post out. That doesn't seem to work so well now. While I'm not generally in agreement with Sandman, I'm with him on this one. The quote system is broken, at least on Google Chrome. It's especially irritating to see the same Youtube screen in 20 posts on the same topic, especially with a slow connection.

MrWorldwide Posted June 9, 2013 Share Posted June 9, 2013 OP, I'm on your side, but it will change nothing. The key issue here is board members who insist on having 'the last word' in any disagreement. Apparently some of us just cant go to bed if they believe their opponent(s) 'won'.

mca Posted June 9, 2013 Share Posted June 9, 2013 What confuses me are the members just who post quotes and then don't post a comment, emoticon or anything. What are they Trappist monks or something? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Apparently some of us just cant go to bed if they believe their opponent(s) 'won'. Personally, I can't see why this should be seen an issue...? If I dont want to read something, I dont. If I'm interested I'll continue to read. If I got involved in the debate I have to recognise that others might be enthusiastic debaters who want to continue the debate no matter what. Again, if I dont want to continue debating I simply stop. What's the issue...? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Apparently some of us just cant go to bed if they believe their opponent(s) 'won'. Why is it the key issue? The topic is about quotes .Is it just you wanting to bend the topic to suit your agenda? You can have the last word if it gives you a boner . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrWorldwide Posted June 9, 2013 Share Posted June 9, 2013 Nice try, ladies - is this the part where I quote you and it starts all over again ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Forethat Posted June 9, 2013 Share Posted June 9, 2013 Nice try, ladies - is this the part where I quote you and it starts all over again ? Personally, I always include a quote in case my post is intended to be a reply or a comment on someone else's post. I do this out of courtesy and respect to others. Quite frankly, posting a reply without a quote of the post you're referring to is, in my opinion, rude and childish. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MrWorldwide Posted June 9, 2013 Share Posted June 9, 2013 Forethat, I pride myself on being rude and childish, but quoting half a page of dialog to post a single sentence is bloody ridiculous. As mentioned earlier, we should have the option to restrict our quote to the last post from a given member - simple as that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David48 Posted June 9, 2013 Share Posted June 9, 2013 I've noticed some improvements with the quoting system, so maybe the overnight review did the trick. ... and we'll all be happy about that. . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scully Posted June 9, 2013 Share Posted June 9, 2013 Download the App, they dont quote everything. You will soon revert to scrolling through the posts just to remember the topic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sandman77 Posted June 11, 2013 Author Share Posted June 11, 2013 What app you mean? How I can downgrade to a older thai visa up on iOS it's possible with some app but I not remember the name! For me quota can switched off complete because everybody is intelegent enough to read the content of the maintopic! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
impulse Posted June 11, 2013 Share Posted June 11, 2013 (edited) I've noticed some improvements with the quoting system. Hey, you're right. I was able to crop out the last half of your post with no problems like before. Good job, whoever fixed it!
