Quote Persistence Issue
I keep running into a strange problem where old posts I've quoted keep showing up everytime I try to quote a new post, or preview a reply I put into the box at the bottom of a thread.
As an example, I'll ctrl-click the Quote button on Post 100 and Post 101. I'll trim Post 101 down to what I wanted, and copy/paste that into the reply for Post 100 and submit.
Hunky dory groovy.
Problem is, I want to respond to something on the next page, so when I click quote, both Post 100 and Post 101 are already in the reply box. Same thing if I post a reply at the bottom and hit Preview.
Sometimes it's just a slight annoyance, but all day yesterday I was having to remove 5 very long quotes every time I posted.

Are you on a mobile? I had this problem recently offsite. I just put the quotes that kept coming back in a spoiler tag and posted them; that got rid of them for me.- TroubledTownie

Not in these cases. I use Q+ when the quotes are short and won't need to be trimmed, but if they are long, I load them up individually, trim them, then put them together.This is the greatest and best sig in the world... tribute.(Now with ∞ more Wiki!)- The Bulge

Well, I've figured out how to avoid it. What I've been doing is just having 1 main tab, and doing everything in new tabs opened off of that. As long as I make sure all the secondary tabs are closed when I'm done with a post, and then refresh or load the next page on the main tab, it doesn't happen.This is the greatest and best sig in the world... tribute.(Now with ∞ more Wiki!) - TroubledTownie
