Do you think nested quotes should be automatically removed?
Rubystars:
Shlomo I think when the chat is ready and you're able to officially release it that it will encourage more visitors to actually participate which will help us a lot. Some people don't like message boards but will enjoy the chat feature. You're doing so much in such a short period of time. I think it will make a big difference.

I think this one's funny.
mysmiley.net has a lot of good ones

It's very explicit. You may need somebody to hit you over the head with a bat before you get the point.
You are intentionally behaving more stupid than you are, by misquoting layers of quotes. (I refer to your post 2 above this one)
This is NOT a deep discussion.
You are not able to get into deep discussions anyway.
There is no need here for you to even attempt using layers of quotes. Which you intentionally mangled here.
You yourself say it's easy to get it wrong. So don't do it.
Quote the person you are replying to, and write your response below it.
Don't mangle it intentionally , especially not so mischievously as you have here, in an argument where you are saying you are against the layers of quotes even being an option.
There are many here, like KahaneBT and myself, that do get into deep logical discussions, and do use layers of quotes.
You have no use for them. So don't use them

While I would personally contest whether pages of NK-apology (stating that they aren't really Israel-hating Holocaust-deniers, that they only met with Ahmadinejad and David Duke to make their "voice heard", etc.) really qualifies as "deep logical discussion"), or whether Shlomo intended hidden meanings that nobody else seems to be able to find, those things are besides the point. Believe it or not, I didn't mangle that quote-post (now edited) intentionally. It was a complete mistake on my part--I accidentally omitted the backslash for the first quote that you made. In fact, I only proved my case by making this typing error: I demonstrated how insanely easy it is to mess up a quotation--even a very simple one--with one omission. Therefore, anything that makes it easier for people to cite quotes from other posters on this forum is a good thing, and anything that doesn't makes it more difficult to quickly and correctly cite other posts in a "logical debate". Wouldn't you say?

Or that you aren't able to put it into words, which is not reality. You're extremely intelligent.

Sometimes it's hard to convey something like tone of voice in written form. That's why smileys help a lot. Also they help to emphasize things, like if you're angry you could post >:(

if women just kept to one tone of voice(a normal pleasant one, not too high), men would be much happier!
Robocop managed fine with one tone of voice. You could see when he was sad or confident..
Fact is, you can write in that you're angry or sad. In my post about Amona I think it was quote obvious I was sad. One just has to use choose the words that represent what they are trying to convey.
