Quoting feature abuse

The quoting feature available for all users in discord is being abused in various ways by people using it in all scenarios and not especifically when it would make sense to use said feature. Users will quote the last message sent instead of normally replying to it or quote the only message from a certain user in a conversation, when they could simply tag the user, instead of quoting specifically which message by the user they intend to reply (which I consider would be the proper use). Another issue with it, is that people will use it for trolling by quoting random messages they find by using the search bar and erasing the @ and not even writing a message to accompany the quote, using it simply to spam the channel they're using it in. Overall, I think this feature should just be removed, there's only one use to the quoting feature and that is to reply to a specific message but the users can also specify which message they're talign about while typing their own and simply tag the user they're replying to.
