    How is this used most effectively? I just tried to click on it one time to see what it did...and it didn't seem to do much...

    Is there something I'm not doing right?

          I like multi-quoting because this way allows you to reply to several posts all at once as opposed to having to go back and find each one to reply to!

          Another BB I frequent upgraded to VB Version 3.61 not too long ago and honestly to me it didn't really seem like just a big difference besides multi-quoting and the fact that I was able to see how full my PM box was % wise. I'm a moderator on that site -- and to me more of the new version features are admin-related stuff.

            oops - and first, I should have thanked Helen for figuring it out for the rest of us

              Quoting multiple posts in a single post

              How do you do that? I can only quote the one I click the quote function on... but the others I can only cut and paste. But theres no linking the quote to a poster.

              I know can because I seen some posts like that... but I no can. Thanks.

                    Re: Quoting multiple posts in a single post

                    I figured how to do that from another message board site.
                    As the link above states on how to do it. It very easy and if you are at home at your computer its easier to multi quote other users on a given thread.
                    I have 2 windows open at the same time and one windows has to be your intened reply and the other window is pasting other quotes from other users.

                      On this board, the button next to the "quote" one is a "multi-quote" selector. No need for a second window.

                                O/T, but when I initially saw this thread, I couldn't help but get scared at the sight of the username who started this discussion.

                                It took me a few seconds to realize that this was a bump of an old thread.
