i know how to quote one thing HHC, and i also know the tags... you noob

maybe i did not make myself clear.

say i want to quote one paragraph from you... then make comments

then quote another of your paragraphs... and make comments

then another quote... and make comments.

how do i do this?? or do people just copy and paste each paragraph in the tags??

so, if i want to do this, i have to open notebook, and copy and paste the initial tag

[ quote author=HHC link=topic=26892.msg220575#msg220575 date=1431624790 ]

then i have to open notebook, and copy and paste each paragraph i want to quote.

then i have to reply to the thread, and re-copy and paste each individual things into my post??

i thought there was an easier way, but i guess not...  when people do this, that is real dedication!!




edit: i just answered my own question, i think.... if click "quote" from somones post, i can copy and paste this tag

[ quote author=HHC link=topic=26892.msg220575#msg220575 date=1431624790 ]  minus the spaces before and after [ ]

then copy and paste their paragraph, then repeat steps... i guess opening notebook would not be necessary, unless the post i wanted to quote was a page back, and there for not in the "topic summary" ...   

ok, so there is no easier way to do this, is what your telling me HHC?

i know how to quote one thing HHC, and i also know the tags... you noob[ /quote ]

no you

[ quote ] paragraph 2 [ /quote ]

no you again

[ quote ] paragraph 3 [ /quote ]

better not use this many quotes paragraphs but just say in one sentence wtf is wrong with komo. Saves us all time reading ae.

edit: just gotta add some additional bb tags while you reply.
edit2: and that's just [ quote ] without the username. So no need to ctrl v.
So dont need to include author every paragraph. It's only better if you're quoting from messages by different authors.

ok, im starting to understand... but i like copy and pasting the real tag each time better... rather then it just saying "Quote"

im not sure HHC can be a good quote mod, he does not act enough like a politician.

:p

anyway i fully understand, and yes HHC, the problem was always me, and not the bbcode... i never said there was anything wrong with bbcode, i just thought there was an easier way to do this.

but i guess people are just doing a lot of copy and pasting :D

you can do as Komo does and write just the author without all those msg numerals.

Here's me being a politician
