Multi-Quotes

If you wish to respond to several members' posts in a thread by quoting them, rather than making several consecutive posts, you can easily put all the quotes together into one post using the 'Multi-Quote' feature.

-While viewing the thread, you will notice a group of buttons at the bottom right of every post. The buttons are 'Edit,' 'Quote,' 'Multi-Quote' (looks like a piece of paper with quotation marks over it), 'Quick Reply' (looks like a paper/pen), 'Send PM' and 'Thanks.'
-Click on the multi-quote button for every post you wish to include in your multi-quote post. The button will turn red each time indicating the post has been 'selected.' You can continue to new pages of the thread as necessary. The site keeps track of which ones you have selected. If you click the multi-quote button again, it will un-select that post.
-After selecting the multi-quote button for the final post you wish to quote in your response, click the 'Quote' button.
-You will be taken to a page which has all the quotes you selected in a box. Add your comments for each post after the [/quote] shown after each quote. Preferrably, remove all unnecessary material in each post you quote. Just be sure you leave the [ ] brackets intact before and after the quote (the beginning should say [quote = nameofmember] and the last one should say [/quote ] (without the spaces, obviously)).
-Once you are done typing in your comments, submit the post! You're all done!
