Edit; I'm a bit slow, see above 
They 'nest' like; here is three levels of nesting;
Which would look like;
But the idea is that the new post is not within quote brackets, so a common one is to just have two levels. Anymore then 2 levels gets a bit over the top in regards to the amount of space used... usually 2 levels is enough to make conversation easy to follow.
Which if I got it right, would look like;

Sorry for the double post. I meant to put this one instead of my last rushed answer. You can delete the previous one if it helps. I think this one is a better answer, even though Jestor's was simple to understand.

Thank you so much guys, was giving me a headache, and now I realised you need to edit your posts for correct nesting within the hour. I use the tapatalk mobile app so we don't have preview option. now I know what to do, things will be easier to be clearer
