A polite, but heartfelt request.?

Double sigh.

Sigh.

All the right answers but not necessarily in the right order

The quoted text is in a grey box on both my tablet and PC.

So we are all correct.

The quoted text is in a grey box on here

The quoted text is exactly the same as the rest of the post, hence why it's so difficult to see where the quoted post ends and the responsive post begins.

On my iPhone it's all exactly the same colour, but nevertheless it is easy enough to distinguish between the quote and the response, because the quote is indented. The response is justified to the left. Simples

the new comment stands out on a white ground underneath

Not on my screen it doesn't? The quoted text is exactly the same as the rest of the post, hence why it's so difficult to see where the quoted post ends and the responsive post begins. Not sure if that's the same for others though?

i still don't see what the problem is.
what does it matter how much space is taken up; it's not like a telegram, paid for by the letter/space.
most most everyone the quotations have a grey ground,= easily identified. so why not just skip over them if you don't want to read them. the new comment stands out on a white ground underneath.
perhaps i am missing something.
i agree with bathsheba above. i have resisted quoting them.

Do you think it's a compulsive habit, bit like a nervous tic?

Sounds a good idea, annep. I feel there are strange things happening on GN just now. I just can't quite put my finger on it. ?

I think there should be a facility for OPs to close their thread. Just saying. .....

Someone ( I don't mean me) is bound to report it, as FH has complained about being picked on.

It has been interesting. ?

Oh no they re multiplying

Oh o, not another one!

Very well FlyingHandbags/Donna. So many people have tried to give you guidance and advice regarding posting but you seem quite determined to ignore it anyway and carry on regardless. But it has put people's backs up and I suspect that MawB is one of those that have become irritated. I've tried to help you, but carry on as you wish. But you can't be too surprised when people get cross with you.

I'm with honeyrose this is all getting slightly tedious now.

Try a piece of cake.

^I don't think she likes me very much at all^

Do you think that that might have anything to do with the fact that, on an open forum, you've told her that she's negative, thinks she's a forum moderator and is disparaging? You've not done much to win her over really have you, making comments like that.

I'm making these comments after weeks of her being abrasive towards me. X

*DonnaFHSheridan*, MawB seems to have a personal vendetta against me. X
I think you are enjoying all this attention, albeit negative.
I feel quite sorry for you. Are you lonely?

NO, MawB does not have a personal vendetta against you.

Not lonely at all. She always seems to have a disparaging comment for me. X
