    Like this. 😉

    Copy section using mouse (hold down left to highlight, then right-click to select copy), then use “b-quote” button before and after your pasted quote.

    Or you can manually use the [ quote ] paste text to quote here [/quote ] tags (without the spaces)

    [ quote=username ] adds the name of the person as well.

    How does one quote others in the forum?

    Usually with a sarcastic response, meant in jest but occasionally taken the wrong way.

    or the chrome extension

    It does strange things with strong tags with user names if that bothers you

    That’s because this forum has the worst functionality of any I use regularly.

    I know of several forums ran by individuals that have crazy nonsense like push notifications, ignore, follow, new posts etc. I mean why would you want that when you can come here and pretend it’s 2003?

    I can figure out most things on here, but how’d you do the crossed out words thing now?

    Is it a s inbetween square brackets type thing?

    Actually while we are on.

    If anyone has any questions on how to do images, videos and quoting can you list them in here. We’ll see if something can be compiled.

    Yes, an FAQ would be a good idea; can you also include the spoiler hiding thing?
