Is there not a law against quoting swathes of a post when the reply is referencing only a small part. Could there not be a subarticle to that law which stops the people who then just keep quoting entire posts when replying so you wind up with 10 foot long replys with just 2 sentences at the end each time?
... or should the individual just exercise some restraint and weed the posts themselves anyway?

This is why I almost always remove everything not relevant to my post. I fucking hate quote towers. Hate them so much.
