Damn nested quotes

When did these things start appearing? They are extremely annoying. Can we make it stop?

I vote the same. It fosters quick one liners, rather than careful responses. Please return to former default.

Re: Damn nested quotes

Well, the theory was that people would edit out parts of a quote that weren't needed for understanding their witty and/or profound repartee, but obviously it wasn't working...

Henceforth, the forum software will go back to stripping out quoted quotes...
