stop bitching, and noone is forcing anyone, but it's commonly accepted
to put the reply under what you are replying too. if you want your

so why do you use vim, if you can't handle it?

first, learn the above syntax, then figure out how autocommands and
syntax formatting work in vim. or just install jove or something more
intuitive.
