The problem is that it looks very ugly and hard to read if the posts are big. Many times it is much better if you separate two different topics in two posts (also when you reply to different people) - IF those posts do not get united into a single one. On the other hand, if you only want to append something to your old post, you can simply click "Edit" and edit it.
What do you say about allowing the posts of the same user to be separated, even if he replies after 5 minutes or less?
A small amount of homework on board code (BB) will fix ALL of your problems. Trying to get a forum to tweek 100% exactly how you want it is extremely difficult on the back end.
I suggest you post as much as you want, and if you see them "run on", then go back and edit it to look better like I do.
