There are uses for quoting a message with a quote. So, I don't see any reason for having that changed.
It is up to the quoter for making sensible use of it.

Don´t see why change the quotes code, if you don´t want to quote quotes then remove the quoted quotes quote code.

well I would remove the quotes of the quotes of the quotes when I make a posting.

but the forum users does not. they can go on and on and on quoting. till it expands the width of the page.

the way its being done in vBulletin is clean.
it does not repeat the quotes which has been quoted users over and over.
i understand vBulletin is a paid system and XOOPS is not.

I just hope to see this as part of a improvement to the system.

Improvement can also be made on the users side by education and Netiquette.
If it exagerates, there is always the moderator.
For the expanding, this can be resolved with CSS in some themes.
