I see people responding to individual sentences with their own replies. However I can't find the multiquote button.

In other boards it's next to the quote button.

Any forum regular help out here?

This would be useful especially on the longwinded SC threads.

Do it manually, copy and paste the bit you want.
 
nah there must be a quicker way I've seen others regularly multiquoting sometimes 6-7 snippets surely they can't be copy pasting (including the name of the people their quoting from?

You mean like this?

I just copy paste, takes about one second.

No there isn't.

Even including that.

Never under estimate the power of bordom

yeah but how and perhaps not like that hehe

Well, if you quote me you would see how I done it. If you mean like Zefan then it is just done manually(so was the way I done it), only takes a second to do.

Try quoting yourself ;) It doesn't show you how you did it! :p

Because whenever you "quote" then existing "quotes" are not included, hence the problem with not being able to multi quote without copy/paste :D
 
Does the laziness of people know no bounds? All you need to know is that the [ QUOTE] tag (without the space) starts a quote and the [ /QUOTE] tag (again without the space) ends it. If you want to put down the name of the person you are quoting you use [ QUOTE=(persons name)] in place of the starting tag and that is about it. The rest is copy and paste for the text, it isn't hard and is barely any more time consuming. :)
 
Just quote someone, if you want multiple quotes use the [tags]

Not hard if you know how to use tags :)
 
ok ok!

I wasn't being lazy I was asking if it can be done as some forums have a multiquote option. :(

I thought perhaps I have to turn the option on somewhere or have 3000 posts to access it perhaps? :p

Question answered thread can now be closed. :)

You do need 3000 ;)

I wanna know why you can't use the spoiler tags.. would save a lot of hassle in the film forums! :)

I guess it would but then if you look in the Filmwise thread (more people need to post in it to give us a better chance of getting the films) all you really need to do is to use the [color] tags. :)

Yes agreed, but the spoiler tags just blank everything anyway
