I recently made a post about this as well. I was stupid enough to post it in DTRM. I am also driven crazy by that.

Isn't it sometimes important to make clear that you're responding to the OP and not to some tit-for-tat later in the thread? Besides, if it's a small post...

Personally, I assume that EVERY post in a topic is replying to the OP, unless otherwise quoted.

This. Why should we assume it's not involving the OP if not indicated?

Usually that is the time when it's appropriate to use quotes: when you're not addressing the original topic. Personally, I really despise the abbreviation "OP."
