Edit; I'm a bit slow, see above :)

They 'nest' like; here is three levels of nesting;
Code:
[quote]A; [quote]B; inside A[quote]C; inside B, which is inside A[/quote][/quote] [/quote]

Which would look like;

A;

B; inside A

C; inside B, which is inside A


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.
Code:
[quote][quote]Original Poster[/quote]Reply Poster[/quote] Original Poster Reply

Which if I got it right, would look like;

Original Poster

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.


Don't forget the "...

You put [Member B] like that, and the "B" won't show...

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
