Multi quote

A quick one, I see some posts are multi-quoted.
Where's that button?

Just press quote on a post thats already got quotes in it, but try and avoid over doing this as it uses up the sites valuable memory. sometimes pinky goes on a purge deleting cases of unnecessary quotes. (mainly mine Laughing )

this has the affect of causing Andyc to quote everything and everybody purely to annoy pinky. Laughing

When quoting someone it is possible to edit their text, but this is against forum etiquette so not for me Whistle At work

Some people can't read and press the quote button instead of the reply button Rolling Eyes

If replying to the previous post there is no need to use it, unless your replying to a specific part, then you can use it and highlight the part refered to, or delete the rest of it your not commenting on

Obviously if replying to a post earlier in the thread, no problems Thumbs Up Former Mod/Member, with the most post & Chicken George Arch nemesis

Gotcha Thumbs Up
Never thought it was quoting a quote, on another forum I belong to it has both buttons available and I thought I was missing something here Confused

So if as CG says "it saves forum site memory", shouldn't pinky have edited his post and not have created another Question s Censored t, I've done it now and being critical to he who must be obeyed Bow down Mr. Green
