I was wondering about the multi quote feature. I thought it was so that when you quote a post, all the quotes within that post would transfer too, but it doesn't seem to do anything. What's it for? Nothing seems to happen.

I believe it for taking quotes from different threads and moving them to your own post.
Clicking the Quote+ on all the ones you want except for the last quote. On that one you choose the quote button. Then it moves all the quotes to your reply.

When I want all the quotes from one post I simply hit "Quote" and then cut and paste the ones I want.

I believe the quote button only quotes the owner of that post.

Yeah, that's what I've been doing. Thanks Steve, I see what it does now.

Yeah, very cool. I had been doing it manually using tabs and cut & paste. What a pain.

Wow. That was fast and easy.:)

Love your answer Shannon. Made me laugh.:D

@rhea... I'm not sure if it works like that but when someone says something and I want to reply but it's off topic, I've been cutting and pasting the quote by moving it to the off topic thread and answering it there.;) So yeah, you can quote someone in a thread and put the quote in a different thread.
