VibeNews should not allow posting a message that is 100% quoted text.

As subject says. Alternatively, a prompt should appear saying "Your message is 100% quoted text, do you really want to continue?"

For such things it would be interesting to know vibenews' stance on javascript. (See #16 )

I believe the biggest problem is when client is NOT a web-browser... :) Web-client, however, should IMHO have some soft of JS-based validation, or, some server-side validation...

Oh ok, didn't think of that ;) . Still, I believe a fully quoted message is technically a correct message, so the server should not reject them. I believe ideally all of this kind of [content] validation belongs into the client, not in the server. Or maybe I'm just a noob when it comes to newsgroups....
