suggestion re: replying with quote

It drives me bonkers when several folks reply to a thread using the "reply with quote" button when there are multiple pictures being downloaded time after time.
I just looked thru a thread that six or seven people replied to all showing the same multiple, huge pictures! ...very annoying.
Similar to lots of people, for example, quoting the entire Gettysburg address over and over instead of just referring to it.
Suggestion would be to edit the pictures out after maybe the second reply. It really is not that difficult to do and seems like a common courtesy.

Ditto!

But not as annoying as quoting an entire paragraph for a one word reply.
