Correct. That has always been the basis for why the rule has always existed on my site.Google considers quoted text being duplicate text, so overquoting has significant SEO implications.

Google considers quoted text being duplicate text, so overquoting has significant SEO implications. That alone is a sufficient enough reason to keep quoting on any given page to a minimum.

Google handles a lot of things intelligently, no argument to that; the issue is that Google themselves have always stated you should not leave things to them if you can ensure compliancy directly, as Google are not perfect.I'm having a hard time believing that Google isn't handling it in some kind of intelligent way

Getting punished by Google because you have thread after thread with multiple content is a tough ask to then get in contact with someone at Google who cares enough to fix the issue for your one site. Do you imagine how many requests Google get that a punished site isn't doing anything wrong? Undoing those things is also another issue.
Really? A dramatic majority of sites on the internet? Forums are a handful of nothing compared to the sites on the Internet.that would be affecting a dramatic majority of sites on the internet.

Except that any plausibility of Google's presumed competence in the forum space goes out the window once you use Google Webmaster Tools to study any forum that has more than 10 thousand threads. You keep requesting evidence, and I've referred you to Google Webmaster Tools several times, which you have ignored.
By the way, you have taken this thread massively off-topic. My original post was asking fellow admins how to deal with people who abuse quoting, i.e. people like you. You coming in and arguing that overusing the quote feature is not all that bad is not addressing any of the issues that are actually relevant here.
Interesting idea. I really do mean to quote most of the time but I think Twitter has embedded in a lot of people's mind, that 'Reply' works as just '@User ...'. It would be interesting to see '+ Quote' turn into 'Quote' and reply do what you mentioned.So what is the point of quote and multiquote when we can quote selectively?
I think a lot of the unnecessary quotes are caused by people who want to reply to someone. It would make more sense if a reply would add a usertag instead of a quote.
