How the FUCK do you edit down quote trees and still get the post relevant?
I'll edit every quote out of the post except my reply and the last post of the person I'm replying to and the damn error message still says I have too many quotes. |

I'm not at all happy about the quote tree limits set by our arfcom overlords.
Their forum, their rules 
ETA: The worst is when you try to reply on a smartphone, and get the error. OMFG, I just give up. I don't try to trim quote trees on my phone...not worth the stress. |

That's different than too many quote blocks. |

It still doesn't stop the people who think adding half a page of blank space between their post and punch line is funny.. Of the people who quote a 5,000 word OP in the first post to say one word... Thanks wall o blank and wall o text quoting a holes. I'm all for pairing down quote trees, really a great idea............could we make it easier than programming the Hubble space telescope to see into Gods soul? Or at least provide a tutorial and give it a sticky? |

That's different than too many quote blocks. Sorry, not a tech guy, what's the difference? But pretty sure it says [you have X amount of too many quotes] and as I edit them out it will count down the X until it's just my post and no other quotes to give it context.

Yes sir, I do that for one of the quotes, then the message says I have 4 too many, So I edit them one by one until it's just my reply and no other posts.

Whatever you do don't ever buy a used quote tree... What if we get the dealership to replace the frame? That's basically a new quote tree at that point right? Sometimes a tree hears things that no amount of parts can shield the world from.. Some quotes just can't be unheard.. |
