Sorry for sounding dislexic:

When you guys are quoting eachother in a long string, it's very hard for me to follow the conversation. If your going to quote someone, could you remove all of the non-imporant stuff in their post?

Thanks

Its not hard to follow the conversation with quotes....It actually makes it easier.

Things to remember when you are reading someone that has quoted something....when using a quote in a post the response to that post is written directly below the quote and so on with others.  Hopefully that will make it better for you...

But I wouldn't expect anyone to change their habits as many have been doing this for years and years.

That they can...but mine are hard to break so...unless I completely forget to use the quote feature which I do frequently and still do...Then I will still use it when I remember and frequently as well...

what I was talking about specifically was when there will be like 4 quotes all jumbled together. Other than that quoting is useful.
