Quote:You are right that such measures would make my posts more readable, but I don't always have enough time to do things perfectly, nor to address every point that is made. Also, nearly all of my posts are written in notepad, without the help of those forum features.
To quote someone without the use of fancy forum features, simply begin the quote with {quote} and end it with {/quote}, except with square ][ brackets instead of }{. That way, it can be done in notepad, not just on the forum proper.
As per not having enough time, perhaps you should consider only posting when you do have enough time. There is no race here, and people will react far better to a well-thought out, well-formatted post than to one that looks like it was slapped together on the way out the door.
