******Behold! The "Quote Burrito!" All wrapped up in donkey crap. I hate these. Personal preference, sure, but I think they're silly.
***************Just my little rant...

It doesn't bother me
Yes, I prefer to edit for specifiicitityness. :)I think it's fine.
It doesn't bother me, either. It's easy to skim(or ignore) the blue box. What does bother me is when someone doesn't understand how it works and posts their reply inside the quotes. :S Cherry picking through the blue box to discern the reply is tiresome.
Nonsense.

What's more irritating is the people who insert their comment into the middle of the quoted text.

It looks like they simply quoted the message without adding anything to it, and you have to search a bit to find their part.

Either that or the people who add their message to the top rather than the bottom. Same problem. It's not in the "usual" spot, so it takes time and effort to figure out what they are trying to say.


There's an echo in here! ;)

Echooooooooooooo.

Something that I find interesting is that I think this is the most quoted thread of posts... I wonder if there's a maximum number of quotes you can embed in a quote.;)

Where will it end?! :ph34r:

I feel a black hole forming.

I think they have cream for that...

Antimatter?

Sorry for the waste of bandwidth but this is an important experiment. Really ;)

I concur.

For science! http://xkcd.com/54/

And the children!
