Perhaps I need to get out more, but I am perplexed by this big hang up about over-quoting. Is it because people wear out their mouse quicker when clicking the down arrow, or are some compelled to read the entire quoted message which they would have read previously, or perhaps it's a site capacity issue where every character represents byte-space? It truly doesn't worry me, and I have been on many forums where noone gives a hoot about such a seemingly inconsequential issue.
For the record, on other sites I do only select the specific text to which I am referring. Others don't, but that doesn't cause me any loss of sleep whatsoever.
