Quoting format

Hello all, I have been on the forum for quite a while, and one thing still manages to puzzle me.

In the early times of my forum posting, I used quotes like most do. I would press the quoting symbol, then copy the post in. It would include the name of the person saying "Originaly posted by ____" I don't know how, but it seems I have forgotten how to include the name of the person. It will just post the quote and not indicate the person who I am addressing.

Help would be appreciated, thank you.

    To quote a single one you can click on reply qith quote, with multiple ones, You can click on the Multi Quote"+" this message button (do it in the posts you want) and then click reply, or you can also manually add the name if you want to
    To do that just put the tags

    [(QUOTE)=(Name of the person)] Random Text [/(QUOTE)]
    (without the parenthesis)

    An example

    Or I jsut found simpliar alternative, you can go to the post and click Reply with quote, I think that is what I used to do, and somehow I drifted from that.

    Thanks for the help Jade

    Well yes that is more easy, but if you want to quote for example two or more posts you need to use the other methods, and remember to remove the parenthesis of the tags
