Bump for moar votes.

I don't really like nested quotes because it makes it hard to notice all the other posts in a thread.

I don't want it! Too... much... work!!!!

One of my favorite comics.

I can't see Penny Arcade at work, but I'm guessing that's "It's not my fault your world orbits a ball of fire"?

Or else, "Aren't there bears outside?"

Or else, "The Frisbee was a nice touch." "I had to ask the guy at the store what they were called."



It's kind of a recurring theme of Penny Arcade, actually.

I agree.

I humbly disagree More nests = more win.

This. The laws of diminishing returns does not apply to nested quotes. More = better, bottom line.

This guy knows what's up.

These people are speaking the scientifically verified truth.

if there's too much nested quotes, i generally trim it down. but some threads call for leaving the nested quotes in. like bulk beef.

And the answer is, it was the third one.

Bullshit. I'm not waiting around for this. I'm sending you pics of Big Ben in lingere with tomato sauce all over his wang and anus. That should bump me up the list a bit.

nested quotes suck. they destroy the readability of the forums. if you want to catch up on the thread, READ THE FRICKIN' THREAD.

delete the parts of the quote you're not replying to.

You just blew my mind.

How many quotes does it need to have before it is considered a bulk nested quote?

Apparently more than 3 is a bulk nested quote.
