I still fail to see how it could be 'approved'.

All you are doing is restating something that any non-retard already knows.  You presented no new function, just telling idiots how to fix their posts.  The thing is that these idiots refuse to fix their posts, and should just be banned when they don't.

Good point.
Besides, "these idiots" you speak of never read the FAQ's.

I'd love to get rid of them.

Report and say "remove quote pyramid" is the only thing I can think of right now.

I'd certainly be willing to oblige, I'm not sure who else would be.

Dear Mods, could you put in place some kind of report system for excessive pyramid building (wherein you would edit out the bullshit, rather than deleting the post itself)?      

  I think I'm getting carpal tunnel scrolling through some of the longer debates in R&P.  

  Thanks awfully for reading.


 Sure im down for that


   

*sigh*


Whats the sigh about? this is pretty important, it needs to happen on LW


 

I completely agree.


I don't see the reason to add another category for something so minor; we have enough reporting categories as it is. We would be better off getting a quote system similar to standard BBCode which better facilitates quote management. I can't find the right reporting categories in that enormous list as it is.

I see your point, but the problem is when you report a post it is generally deleted, which would be rather counter-productive in this case.

LW shouldn't allow this to happen. An FAQ wont work because no one will read it. LW should just know to only quote the last post.

I know other forums that do that, but sometimes it is required to quote more than that.

Still support b& for these faggots though.

THen the SMARTER members can figure out how to add the quoted content they need. The problem is that LiveWire isn't setting up the post for all the lazy people.
