Subject: Do you have issues with this new quote format?

cars, girls & cake all day everyday

(I was going to make this thread earlier today but then dazza made the other thread about quoting...and now this feels awkward. Like two fat chicks showing up at a party with the same dress. But whatever.)

Anyways...I used to quote the way everyone else does:

Yo.
Sup.
urmomlolol

But ever since Achronos pretty much forced this new format down (in a friendly and simple way) it's been a pain trying to keep the old style around, because you've gotta click, backspace, click, then type. I've been able to take the new format up quite well though, I don't have to backspace or anything, and it actually looks much easier to read:

urmomlololPosted by: That_guy
Sup.Posted by: This_guy
Yo.

You're not skipping up and down between names, you're just reading upwards. Is anyone else just too used to the old format to want to give it up? Or does it just feel awkward. Does this moment feel awkward? To you...right now? I'm sorry. :<

I like this quote format more than the previous one.

Actually, I find that I'm more invincible without pants, which is why I am not wearing any at the moment.

I didnt even know it changed until you pointed it out.

I do too. Achronos used to do it before he did the textbox thing, and I'd be all "yo son y he do it like dat" but you really don't start to notice how better it is until you're reading a pyramid.

I just do the click and keep it the original way.

The old ways is the best ways.

If you mean replying like this, then so do I. I find it a little easier to read, and I just like it better.

I work for the Department of Defense.

People who do it like this are just Achronos fan boys and should be shot in the face.

I prefer to have the quote above my reply. It just seems to make more sense.

But what about quote pyramids...?
It's sort of weird having to skip back up to see who typed what...

I'd rather read what was typed in my quote pyramids down than up.
