Suppose you want to quote and reply to several separate post all in one reply box. Go to the first post you wish to reply to, click 'Take Action' then click 'reply with quote' and you'll be whisked down to your reply box where the chosen quote will appear. Now go to the next post you wish to quote and hit 'Take Action' again and again click 'reply with quote'. As before you'll be whisked down to your reply box and the 2nd chosen quote appears below the first one. Keep repeating for each post you wish to quote. once you've got all your quotes you can now add your comments, then post as normal

Thanks Fluffs, I was wondering not that I use it that often. Always good to know though
It's all the 'whishing' up and down the page that's doing my head in - not just when you're quoting, but when you refresh a page that's got a lot of posts in.

Rofl ....I meant it was easier than it was trying to post from it before ....for example , I couldn't quote in the old format
One point on Fluffy's post. You can quote a reply , make your comments , then quote another reply and make comments. You don't need to do all the quotes first.
As with the old version all replies quoted have to be on the same page. If you are wanting to quote replies from different pages you may be able to do that by increasing the number of replies shown on a page via the replies per page option at the bottom of the page.

That could make for a marathon post El
I won't be doing multiquotes, I've learnt how to do one and I'm staying with that

if you keep a tab open for a specific thread and just refresh it now and then, once you've read the last post in it click take action on that post and then click permalink. Next time you refresh it will start from that last psot. .then do the same with the last of the new posts that come up and so on .. should work without whooshing you back to the top..
grrrrrrrr bleedin stoopid non existant spell check.. takes forever to correct the jumble of letters that I always get back into the correct order, due to overly fast fingers hitting the right keys jsut not in the right order

Serious question, will it allow quoting over page boundaries?

I'm led to understand that it won't. Sorry!

My world has just come crashing down around my ears!
But I'll get over it.
