Moderation of members rides…

[TommyR]

Not sure if it has been mentioned in the past, sorry if it has but I see a lot of builds with duplicate comments or big updates being quoted making for a messy read.

Would it be possible to make the OP of the thread a moderator of it, so they can keep it tidy and on topic?

The OP can already lock the thread or even delete it completely, but as for other people's posts I'm in agreement. Perhaps disabling the ability to use [IMG] code within quotes would go half way to reducing bandwidth requirements and space on screen.

If that's possible IMO it would be a good improvement!

I don't think it can be done. Sorry.

Can you code a quote to change the header on the IMG to make it a thumbnail? I think PHs do this.

I think quotes in the for sale section should be stopped if possible I had 30+ pictures quoted the other day

I ask the poster to edit it which he did 

cheers dan

Not sure that's possible but will take a look and double check because it's a good idea

Turns out it is possible but it would be forum-wide so no one would be able to quote pictures in any section, and quoted smilies wouldn't show either 

[TommyR]

That's the kind of thing I was meaning... Quoting 30 pictures is just unnecessary and makes a mess!

[th3_f15t]

Would the loss of quoting pictures be a great loss?

no loss to me hahahaha

[TommyR]

Life is about sacrifice and compromises... No great loss to me either

You could resize images within quotes with a small piece of javascript. But core files would need small modifications. You could even remove the images completely when the post is posted.

On the page below all images bigger than 100px in quotes are resized so smilies would not be affected. You could even take it one step further and have them enlarge on mouse over.
