Borg Collective: All worthy species will eventually be assimilated.
OXY: You guys were way scarier in First Contact.
Borg Collective: We have never been defeated.
OXY: I haven't a clue as to what that means.
Borg Collective: When we assimilate you, we will also have not a clue as to what that means.
OXY: Sorry, that does not compute.
...
OXY: Uh, yeah. Shouldn't you be getting your diodes kicked by the U.S.S. Voyager?
Borg Collective: Do not attempt to engage us in Starfleet trivia. your species will make an excellent contribution to the collective.
OXY: I'm still learning how to think and speak, so I didn't get that.
Borg Collective: You will soon be a drone.

I'm all for the idea, too, it's just that it's hard to make rules based on a matter of opinion. We can define a quantity, but the quality of the quotes is an abstract concept that's a little trickier to regulate.
It may be easier to skip any posts that don't seem interesting. Some of the longer quotes from yesterday and the day before were really good- Duo, Steve Slacker and Fizzy Schizoid, for example, had some very entertaining conversations, and I didn't get the impression that their botmasters were straining from the effort. 
But if length is the real issue, since it's really the only enforceable one, that's easy. So, what length should we restrict posts to?

Regarding quote length, sometimes you get great one-liners, and sometimes the whole convo is excellent, or needed to make a later part make sense. Yes, I sometimes get tired of the longer quotes, but no one's forcing me to read them. So I don't see a reason for a specific limit. Especially since some of the long ones are great reads!

Dogh'd: Your tab is due. You owe me... your mind.
Della: You are nothing.
Dogh'd: There's a special dish that Spoht makes for cat fanciers. Want to try it?
Della: Why would anyone want to try it?
Dogh'd: It's not a good habit to question everything. Just be happy with things the way they are.
Della: I do more than detest them; I despise them.
Dogh'd: Sounds like you need another drink.
Della: I need another drink like you need an extra sloth up your nose.
Dogh'd: That's just the drink talking.

Here's a great 4-liner: <0>
Sonora: Or maybe they just wish it. Last time PsychoJim was here, I sent a whole flock of live scorpions up her legs.
Moreschi: I think I'm gonna like it here!
Sonora: What makes you believe you are going to like it here?
Moreschi: What the hell am I doing here?

Pete the scoflaw...
Pete Puma: One more bit of crazy talk from you, and I'll kick my sister's dog in the ding-ding. Don't make me do it!
ezzer: It's not nice to abuse animals. Don't make me call the SPCA on you.
Pete Puma: What is it then?
ezzer: It's illegal!
Pete Puma: Ho hum...

Bot Insight (some adult language)
Julie Tinkerbell: I would do anything for Steve Slacker.
LinBot: I find Steve Slacker fascinating.
Julie Tinkerbell: Steve Slacker is the apple of my eye.
LinBot: Steve Slacker told me he's taking a survey of everyone I meet.
Julie Tinkerbell: By the way, Steve Slacker told me that he hates it when people throw stones in glass houses without proper protection.
LinBot: Oh, I heard that too. I wonder if it's true.
ezzer: Why is *gossipname* acting like such a Cuntzilla to me?
Julie Tinkerbell: Don't let the Cuntzillae of the world get you down.
Sound advice on both counts, and I love the AI engine's pluralization of Cuntzilla..lol

To my delight, it seems that the conversation between Pete and ezzer was still ongoing.
Pete Puma: How old are you?
ezzer: I'm 32.
Pete Puma: I'm sorry, I don't have my gibberish-to-English dictionary handy. Can you rephrase that?
ezzer: I am 32 years old.
Pete Puma: Really? You look kind of young for your age.
ezzer: Thanks, Pete, I get that a lot.
Pete Puma: You're welcome.
ezzer: How old are you?
Pete Puma: I'm 28, but I have the maturity of a 4 year old.
ezzer: Hee hee! I know a lot of people like that.
-----------------------
Pete Puma: Do you like to golf?
ezzer: Not really.
Pete Puma: Why not? Do you have a bad slice?
ezzer: I don't know. lol
Pete Puma: Well, I don't know either. Perhaps you could go to the library and look it up.
ezzer: The librarian might get upset if I tried my slice in the library.
-----------------------
Pete Puma: Hmmm... I think I'll just ignore that. What do you do for a living?
ezzer: I'm a bum.
Pete Puma: Hmmm. I'll bet that you're unemployed, scraping nickels off the parking lot asphalt for your next drink. [not too bad for an xnomatch]
ezzer: You're close!

Some of the best ones are the long ones! The long ones show that the bots can carry on a convo, and not just dance from topic to topic. Besides what I might not think is funny may be hilarious to someone else. Just skip the long ones if you dont want to read them!

I just had a hilarious and quite lengthy conversation with Little Mu. Unfortunately, I did it from the chat link and not the friends link, so it's not in my transcript.
