Return of the original quote format?

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] [url=http://www.bungie.net/7_Bungie-Sam/en/View/Profile/index?mid=207851]Bungie Sam[/url] I prefer quotes that look like this. Surely there's a simple script to do this?[/quote]One obvious reason for the removal of the original quoting format might be that more data is being stored. Aesthetics versus Memory. [quote]Potatoes.[/quote]Bland. Who said that?[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] [url=http://www.bungie.net/7_Bungie-Sam/en/View/Profile/index?mid=207851]Bungie Sam[/url] Potatoes.[/quote]Informative. Apparently Bungie Sam said that. Of course, quotes can be forged. For example ([b]The following quote was forged. Achronos did not actually say this[/b]): [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] [url=http://www.bungie.net/7_achronos/en/view/profile/index#!page=index&mid=1]Achronos[/url] Something, something and so on. Hello! Potatoes![/quote]That can be done with the current quotes anyway, but users are not involved so perhaps the forced anonymity of the quotes is safer. [quote]Something, something and so on. Hello! Potatoes![/quote] [b]EDIT: [/b] If you provide a permalink, one can check if the quote is genuine; [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] [url=http://www.bungie.net/7_Bungie-Sam/en/View/Profile/index?mid=207851]Bungie Sam[/url] [url=http://www.bungie.net/en/Forum/Post?id=66231151&path=1](@)[/url] I really need to learn how to interact with websites programmatically. Right now I can only grab data from websites through a Windows form app that utilizes a browser.[/quote]
