Thanks, this thing is really annoying for pasting things on IRC or quoting someone here on the forums.

MAL is getting worse day after day...

What about Chrome's plugin? Not that it bothers me, but just checking.

I think there is a ghostery and adblock plugins for chrome too. Or edit your's OS hosts file to block it in all your browsers.

Seriously, this is an irritating 'feature.' Do enough people even quote content from MAL on other websites to justify having this coupled with every bit of copied forum text? It at least shouldn't appear when I'm pasting text from a thread into a reply I'm making.

Anyone else annoyed by this and want it removed in The Great MAL Renewal of 2020?

I don't copy and paste stuff a lot but it is a pain to have to remove the read more link. I would definitely be in favor removing it.

It's very annoying. I copy and paste stuff a lot, so I got used to it. It's still a stupid and useless feature nonetheless.

it only happens when its 7 or more words though so you do need to make sure your copying atleast something that long to reproduce the annoyance.

All my time here I have never once in my entire life seen this, I've heard about it in other suggestion threads and such but not once seen it. Because of this, I believe this is a massive conspiracy to make me think I'm missing out on things and think it should stay because it doesn't exist.

I've seen it once or twice. If there was a really long anime title and I couldn't bother to type it, I would copy and paste it and the link thing would be there.

This silly 'feature' plus the whole 'try to keep to less than 4 quotes in a post' 'rule' gets very tedious very fast. I end up copying text and adding in in quote tags manually, rather than just pressing 'quote' again because I have to delete less text.

Mal is just like delete this, delete that, delete them, delete him, delete her, delete MAL...

Well, my Adblock is the same Adblock Plus with the regular old EasyList subscription that anyone else uses. I don't often have reason to subscribe to any other. Which subscription of yours blocks it?

I'll have to add it when I hop into my computer then.

The ability to block it still doesn't excuse the fact that it's stupid though. Like, why? Did Xinil seriously think MAL topics were worth sharing outside of MAL?

Add a blocking filter for po.st. It also gets rid of those annoying icons on the top of every topic that create a popup when you hover over them.

I have tried again and again now and still, I don't have this happen. I never have and I'm not now.

I don't have any special add-ons, filters, or filter lists, just ABP as it comes. I've never seen someone else post and have that (aside this thread) and I certainly have never had it appear in anything I post. I don't even get what it is still.

Disable ABP and make a discovery.

Subscribing to the annoyance list certainly fixed the issue, but of course that's only from my own kompootah.
