Yo Halo53, I'm real happy for you and I'ma let you finish, but Beyonce had one of the best bungie.net profiles of all time. OF ALL TIME!

For the sake of brevity, I propose that quoting a post which contains a quote with nesting deeper than one level, have its inner quotes removed and only the outermost quotes remain.
I think this is a bad idea, mostly because of this...

Most of the time what was quoted in the quote that you're quoting is the relevant quote for your quote to quote.
I've always taken the extra 5 seconds of my time to properly format anything I'm quoting. If I'm only responding to a specific part of a post, I delete the irrelevant parts. I do agree that the forums sometimes get a tad messy because of quoting, but that's squarely on the shoulders of us forum users and not anything on the technical side of it. If you want me to put in the effort to read your post, you need to put in the effort to clean it up. Whether it's editing a quote or a quick spell-check, if each person takes a little of the responsibility on their own shoulders, it will go a long way to making this place a little more pretty.
