I don't see that as a problem, in the old days it was: RTFM!
Here, it's: RTFThread! If there are two or three snippets you really NEED to add to your post for context, go ahead, you can even nest the freakin' things if you really WANT to!
The fact that's it's done by manual input now will clear up a LOT of nested clutter and raise the signal to noise ratio significantly.
There's been far too little previewing & editing being done before hitting the Submit Button going on here for a long time. I do a lot of my .TXT entry in a .TXT editor OFFLINE, including the HTML tagging, just to save time for better things and reading the threads when I'm online.
I guess it's a matter of taste, but there has been a LOT of abuse of the quote function going on around here.
IMHO, naturally! :lisa:
