Has nested quotes changed recently? My memory of how this works is out of date.

Disclosure in the first line saves a moderator five minutes and a member an argument.

The search box handles most of this and almost nobody uses it.

Nothing here is a rule for its own sake, which is why the odd ones have a paragraph attached.

The short version is that the rule exists because of a specific pattern of posts.

Would a sticky help, or is that overkill?

Half these threads would be unnecessary with a functioning search box.

My pharmacist has become my actual doctor and I am at peace with it. Not on nested quotes but the pattern is familiar.

Followed, this answered three questions I had. Side effects was my main issue with nested quotes too.
