Help with quotes in posts
Well, I'm not a troll last time I checked but couldn't see a better place to put this question.
I know I saw some instructions about how to multi-quote in posts around here somewhere but for the life of me I can't find it now that I need it.
Could someone kindly point me to some instructions regarding multi-quote functions for this site?
The way it is done here is unfamiliar to me.
If you can help, Thanks!

Thanks Loc.
So multi-quoting here is done entirely manually.
Another place I visit has a multi-quote thing where
you can quote several posts at once (just by clicking) and I incorrectly
assumed that there must be something like that here too.
No problem...and Thanks again!

No multi quoting is automatic here..just click quote at the bottom of a post and everything in it will be put in the respective writer's quote tags. Same as the other place I'm sure
Psalm 14:1 "the fool hath said in his heart there is a God"-From a 1763 misprinted edition of the bible
Argument from Sadism: Theist presents argument in a wall of text with no punctuation and wrong spelling. Atheist cannot read and is forced to concede.
Thanks.
I was talking about being able to quote from 3, 4 or 10 posts above yours by clicking something on each one that you want to include. Some forums have this kind of thing and different ones use different buttons. The example below uses + and - signs to include or exclude multiquoting posts above. Again, no big deal not to have this feature. I should've realized it isn't available since there are no additional buttons at the bottom of posts.
