Who's the worst?
Realising I have a few compulsive quoters on my forum I started searching around here and found many topics about code changes to do various things about the quotes although many topics seemed to be abandoned. I searched for this in the past and I'm sure I stumbled on a topic that had a quick code change to check for member level and only show the icon/link to "reply with quote" to admins and moderators. I cannot seem to find that topic now.
If any of you experienced coders could post that snippit of code here I sure would appreciate it.
Thanks.
EDIT.. Or maybe point out the lines and I could comment them out for a board wide quoting bann for a while. that would work for me
If it would work that way.<

Sorry, couldn't resist. That is one of the most annoying things that people do on a forum, that's for sure.<

Sounds like it just needs an mlev check around the reply with quote code.
Not tested but how about changing the code in topic.asp from (and it might be a little different in my heavily modded forum):

I think this occurs in two places.<

I turned off the quote feature in my forums except for MODs and Admin. See here.<

I rely heavily on quoting, it makes it easy to identify specific things that people say, especially if you're commenting on something someone said pages earlier. I'm not sure eactly what constitutes quote abuse??<
