I see people quoting parts of other posts and would like to do the same in some of my replies.
I can see that above the section I am writing this post in there is a quote button but not sure how it works. Before or after I copy the text or maybe both?

I tend to stick what I want to quote in italics; that way I can edit it to discredit the original poster…

Copy the bit you want to quote and paste it into the message box, highlight it all then press “quote”. Then it’ll be quoted but wont show until you post the message. You’ll get

around the bit you highlighted.

Edit: DOH. too slow 🙁 Mine was the best though!

Ahhh got it!! thanks guys.

Ah great, OP thanks for asking this, I’ve never been able to do it, you’re not the only one who didn’t know.

Ah great, OP thanks for asking this, I’ve never been able to do it, you’re not the only one who didn’t know. I can write anything here

Why does doing it in Italics only mean you can change whatever you’re quoting as crikey says? Surely this way means you can still write whatever you like ?

Just playing. Wonder how much shit you can paste in there though. 🙂

long cat anyone?

can you quote images?

it would appear so 😆

I want to be able to put a quote within a quote. Then I want to quote that. Then someone else can quote that and so on until we create a portal out of the internet.

That looks like quite a short cat to me……might go to bed before someone posts something silly!

I think we’ve extracted as much fun from this as possible. 🙄
