Mercen, then those people are simply being lazy and tell them to trim up the quotes or knock off the multi-quoting. Frankly, I will use quotes if the post I'm commented on is around 5 posts above where the current post is. Why? Because I think it's silly for people to back track these long threads to see who or what I'm referring to when I can easily just bring the bits with me to the post. Especially when a thread diverts into two or three seperate debates at once over minor things.

I apoglize if it annoys you, but your arguement against using quotes is more of user error rather than quotes being an actual problem to begin with. Also your link didn't say anything about how to refer to people's quotes in other ways. The only way I know of is "@User" which most often than not can lead to confusion. This is because people forget exactly what they wrote and will paraphase like crazy. I don't like paraphasing if I can avoid it.
