Title: Long Comment/Post with multiple Quotes
Post by: Ucy on December 24, 2020, 05:26:10 PM
Man, those things can be boring to read... I mean replies that quote lots of comments on a single post.
I never really like posting that way. I try to make my replies and quotes as short as possible for easy reading and in order not to bore readers. I hardly even read lots of the long post with many quotes, and I try to avoid creating them. Even a long reply without any quote can sometimes be boring to read not to talk post with many quotes.

Maybe 2-6 quotes on a single reply is ok?

No one is going to read a nested post and possibly such kind of post will be deleted if reported. Its not really okay to post which is quoting too much of posts, maximum 2 is okay even better if we highlights the portion what we are replying to if possible.

I agree with you, post that are too long and include many quotes are very hard to read. And the real subject of the thread gets lost sometimes. In my opinion 2 quotes are totally fine, but if you have 6 of them it's too much already. I use the forum a lot on my tablet or my smart phone, so the longer the post the more I need to scroll. One compromise could be to make an App for the phone that could let you collapse all quotes as default when being on the phone.
