What it basiccly does, is allow you to do multiple quotes at once without the hassle. If any of you are members at NF, you can try it there. I think it would help when debating (not to promote assery) or just quoting a lot of people in general.
Can we get multi-quote?

It's a pain to Quote, Ctrl+C, back, Quote again, and then Ctrl+V.
Of course, since I don't partake in any serious discussions, nor have any posts that aren't me spouting random shit, I usually have short posts.
Seems like a good idea, though. The problem has been faced by me before.
FACE!

Heh. Do you know why we do not do that ? I will show you why.

That's why.
edit – but if you mean like, posts from individual users, uhhh well, PM me with what you mean, Octo-polygon. I think that's an Invision feature and we are vBulletin (thus a no-go) but I'm not for certain. There's probably a plug-in for it anyway. If it IS a vB board you're referring to we can prolly find that plugin, if not... tough luck for now.

Ah there is too many quote boxes for one human brain to comprehend, my brain implode now.
I have been on forums that use multiple quote boxes and I’ll agree with what Carly said, it becomes a tool of evil when people misuse the power.
-
Yeah, I think we used to have multi-quote, but took it down because people misused it previously like how Carly showed us. :/
-
maybe limit it to 3 or 5 quotes a post? just a suggestion. I also thought it would be a good feature because I had other points I wanted to counter in debates.
-
Yeah, I'd say limit it to 3 or so quotes a post if at all possible. Still enough to do what you need to do yet less enough for pricks to be able to ruin the thread.
-
I don't think that's much worse then quoting long ass posts. But it probably wasn't what Polygon meant.
-
Heh. Do you know why we do not do that ? I will show you why.
That's why.

**I've seen it on NF and OPHQ, which are both vB as far as I know.
As far as what you posted above happening, I don't think it would happen. We see posts with like, 10 quotes and super long replies still. It's like when the spoiler tag was brought in. But I don't see anyone abusing the spoiler tag now.**

You can't compare this to spoiler tags. And you obviously think to high of this community. That always happens, especially because most of posters don't take their time to think when they quote someone, … so i vehemonthly object against that.
The multi-quote option is a different thing. If it's implemented properly it's a very welcome feature i agree.
-
jeepers carly, you almost made me spit my drink all over my pc! XD And you thought you weren't wierd. :P
May I make a suggestion to those that want to do multiple posts? this is what I do. I bring up note pad. Every quote I want to remember, I copy and paste it to note pad, as I'm reading through all the posts. When I'm done, I just copy and paste, add a few "
" thingies and reply. I find it's easy for me. :)
or you could just open a new window for each individual post, and go back to them later.

You are kinda right.

**Exactly. I just think it would be helpfull
If NF could do it (not saying some members there are any more or less tardier than some over here, they just have a larger population) without people abusing the multi-quote feature, I think it can be done here.
Of course, this is just a suggestion.**
-
You'd have to think of what could go wrong with implementing multi-quotes, which Carly summed up pretty damn well. It might help with getting your point accross but really, it can also make people lose interest in reading it.
I wouldn't want to have to read about 4 essay length quotes just so someone can bitch and moan about Usopp. -
I don't understand how posts would get much (if any) longer than they already are if the multi-quote feature is brought in.
-
Another fact I will bemoan about multiquoting is a situation like this.

! i agree with the aboveAnd I see posts like the above all the damn time. Seriously people, if you're going to multiquote, at least be effing constructive. :p
I guess we can look into it but given our general use and abuse of vB so far who knows. :s

Yeah we have enough problems with people doing that with just one quote box as it is. I'm used to just copying and pasting from various posts, it's not difficult or time consuming.
