Read. Vote...or complain that the choice you wanted wasn't there. Simple. ;)
P.S. Sorry about spelling mistakes in the poll options :) (i.e. coice = choice)

Stop the board from chopping quotes within quotes- it makes it hard to follow discussions!

It isn't the board chopping quotes that makes it hard to follow: it is people having neither the time nor the energy to rebuild them by hand. On the old board we would have the full posts reproduced, but it wasn't always clear to what part a poster was responding. A little bit of editing and snipping extraneous material helps out a lot.

Hey, let these posts be the foundation of a *huge* quote pyramid!

I like the fact that there aren't quote pyramids here. I think people ought to use care to chop out all but the essential quotes from what they're replying to. Unfortunately, some people leave long quote pyramids and type something like, "I agree." Or an emoticon.
