How is a poster's quote separated, as in the example above? I have been doing it the long and tedious way, which is copy/pasted the whole quote then dissected it in order to respond to each point. But rather do it like above, if someone shows me how to.

I included the poster's ID whereas you did not?

Or is there a different icon you used?

Take note, I don't want to multiquote different posters,

just reply to the different points in only ONE poster's post!

the initial quotes that are in the message or do you know where I went wrong here?

Guess I need practice still...

just add quote tags anywhere you want

oh fk! I'm now more confused than ever!! No joke...although it is rather funny, that I can't grasp this! I blame the blonde dye coloring...it must've seeped into my skull!! Should've stayed my natural brunette self!

And Greg? Architecturally speaking, your post above ^^ is rather cool in a weird forum posting way!

TESTING***Trying this one last time ... << If done correctly, what I'm typing should NOT SHOW WITHIN THE QUOTE ABOVE

Quote:

Seems only difference with my quotes and yours is that I included the poster's ID whereas you did not? Or is there a different icon you used?

*** TESTING*** Thing is, I don't think it will work, since the initial post quote is still here, should I remove the INITIAL QUOTE TAGS?

Take note, I don't want to multiquote different posters, just reply to the different points in only ONE poster's post!

<< see this? I have not tagged this quote, but the quote tag is still there since that's the initial quote tag...now I know what I'm typing now is definitely not going to be within the above quoted post, but not too sure about the rest above. I'm most probably making the same error...only way I know how to fix this error is to manually remove the end of the initial quoted tags. Anyone understand what I'm saying here?

I find it annoying when posts stretch beyond my screen and I have to use the slider. It may not too last long.

Boop-Oop-A-Doop! · 07-02-2012, 05:45 PM

Ce1ska did you remove the initial quotes?

Take this example below :

Quoted by whoever...yadda yadda yadda.................! .................! ..............?..............

lol / end quotes

I must have to remove the end quote in that post above in order to use the bubble tags, otherwise I would be typing within that quote, imo ...do you understand what I'm saying??

Oh sorry sir. But thought for sure you'd have the e-acronym for **** in your system! (test 1..using the bubble word icon)

Quote:

Just one of those days...

(still testing,)

Quote:

Ah. You're female.

ah. you're male. pfff...(testing still)

Say wat?? Speak englash sir! (be nice sir, don't ban my arse...just testing the forum system icons for ya!)

Last test: so here is how it looks ...there is one Quote in the beginning of what I typed and then 2 Quotes at the end of what I typed, one being that of the bubble word icon and the other quote being that of the original post.

Crossing fingers, arms, legs and eyes! oh noes...now I got a headache! lol

Ok so before I hit submit, I previewed the post ...cus I'm tired and feel dumber than ever now. So now, I'm simply going to remove the extra /quote tag at the end of Mike Haven's last line above (the bolded words). Now it should work, and if it does...I'd be asking myself the question "now why couldn't these guys simply just tell me to remove the last initial quote tag?"

Hitting submit nowwwwwwwwww....boom boom shakalaka (drumroll pls) lol
