Let's stop quoting images!

[Griffeycom]

I find it extremely annoying to be viewing a thread that contains images and then someone quotes those images and we get to see the same picture..AGAIN! Sometimes you get to see that picture 2..3..35 times in a single thread. When you go to quote the person with the image just delete that image from your quote, simple as that.

Anyone else agree or am I just crazy?

Is that a hypothetical question?

I have to semi agree. If the image doesn't NEED to be quoted, I would LOVE for people to quit quoting them but there are times it's necessary. More often than not though, you can quote a person and not include the image. I think some people are just too lazy to delete the image.

I agree with spasmo, its pretty much people being lazy (or in some cases computer illiterate), but it would be nice to see it stopped.

Well it depends..............If the image is of a good looking woman, then it should appear in all the responses. I'm just saying.............

Sorry, but I had to.

Sorry, but I had to.

Haha, I saw that post and was about to do it but you beat me to it!


I agree though it's laziness and computer "illiterate" people mostly, but I still felt like I needed to say it

Thats a funny picture.

Images?! I find it more troubling, when reading from a mobile device, to see looooong posts (texts) quoted over and over and over.

It makes my little thumb sore.

Wait... was that my outside voice?

I guess I don't care.

Still on dial up huh?

 

[Boilers]

I agree.

 

[Bigum1969]

I agree.

smart arse!

Quoting images in messages is not as bad as a very long, lengthy message being quoted in it's entirety when the response deals with a mere sentence or small paragraph.

There's a time and place, people need to learn when to or not to apply it.

After reading all the responses I forgot what the question was!! I should have quoted it!!! Dang it!!!

No, you're not crazy.

There is an option in vBulletin to turn off pictures in quotes. Just sayin'.

I'm still working on the old crank system. You know a long short and a long.
