When quoting posts
Hi,
I wanted to make a suggestion. Is it possible to remove the feature, when someone quotes a post that includes a number of pictures, the pictures to be removed automatically? It makes threads too long and seeing the same picture 10000 times is annoying and a waste of time. Classic example look at the Rolex and attire thread https://www.rolexforums.com/showthre...15077&page=279 Its a waste of bandwith, download time, disk storage and resources that thread or any other thread use which no doubt costs an arm and a leg to maintain/purchase to TRF owner. Your thoughts are welcome! |

Since it's not a configurable software option to automatically truncate subsequent quotes of pics, we are left with members choosing to self edit.
Some will, most won't. |

The same image being referenced repeatedly should not affect hard drive usage or bandwidth in any way. It can get annoying, and I think most members edit the pics out, but sometimes it's helpful to quote a picture...I think disabling it would not be worthwhile.
