pendaWhen I'm on my phone it's too much effort to delete all the text for quotes so I don't bother.
I mean
I feel like this needs to be said because like 3/4 of people I see post don't understand how to do these things
1) When you see a thread with several people quoting each other, be sure to minimize space taken up and only directly quote the latest post in the hierarchy.
Bad Example:Console 1Console 2See?Console 3Actually if you just delete the words from all but the important posts it looks so much cleaner and organizedConsole 4Stop doing thisit takes up so much space as a post,
you can condense it really easily[quote=Console 1][quote=Console 2][quote=Console 3][quote=Console 4]Stop doing this
it takes up so much space as a post,
you can condense it really easily[/quote]Actually if you just delete the words from all but the important posts it looks so much cleaner and organized[/quote]See?[/quote]
[/code]
Good Example:
Console 1Console 2See?Console 3Console 4
[quote=Console 1][quote=Console 2][quote=Console 3][quote=Console 4][/quote][/quote][/quote]See?[/quote]
2) Image embedding needs the actual image location, not just a link to where it's displayed. This problem most commonly happens when people attempt to imbed Imgur albums/images and do not understand that copying the page where the image is hosted is not the same as copying the location the image is stored.
