"Without nesting conversations really devolve and I can't follow them." "I am not going to spend 5 minutes scrolling through 2 pages looking for who is replying to whom and keeping track of all that crap."
So, what you're trying to say is that you refuse to read the threads - you want everything summarized in one gigantic post with as many as 9 nested posts.
I've got bad news news for you... "back to multi-nesting 10 deep..." It won't make it to 10 deep. Back in the fusetalk days, the moderators usually started warning and vacationing people at under that amount. I personally spent quite a bit of time moderating by trimming down unnecessarily nested quotes, all the while muttering "stupid fusetalk, why does it allow posts to be nested so deep." Go ahead, search technical forum issues & personal forum issues. There are dozens of complaints from the Fusetalk days about excessively nested posts, and that doesn't even begin to compare to the number of PMs to the moderators complaining about certain threads. There's absolutely no reason for 10, 9, 7, or even 5. And, imho, no reason for more than 1 or 2.
