Folks are hitting the Quote button rather than Post Reply when answering the last post in a thread.

We default to Linear Oldest First so it gets rather stale and wasteful to see all the duplicate postings one after the other. We do not use Quick reply.

Find in postbit template:

Code:

<if condition="$post['replylink']">
	<a href="$post[replylink]" rel="nofollow"><img src="$stylevar[imgdir_button]/<if condition="$post['forwardlink']">reply_small<else />quote</if>.gif" alt="$vbphrase[reply_with_quote]" border="0" /></a>
</if>

Replace with:

Code:

<!-- Start last post reply Hack -->
<if condition="$post['islastshown'] AND $post['replylink']">
<a href="$post[replylink]&amp;noquote=1" rel="nofollow"><img src="$stylevar[imgdir_button]/reply_small.gif" alt="$vbphrase[reply]" border="0" /></a>
<else />
<if condition="$post['replylink']">
<a href="$post[replylink]" rel="nofollow"><img src="$stylevar[imgdir_button]/<if condition="$post['forwardlink']">reply_small<else />quote</if>.gif" alt="$vbphrase[reply_with_quote]" border="0" /></a>
</if></if>
<!-- End last post reply Hack -->

Take notice that this is for default setting "Linear - Oldest First".
