How to multiple Quote

[gbaker]

Ok I know about the quote button, but its set up to quote one person per reply. Still I see people who are able to quote several posts in one reply. I finally was able to do this according to the preview pane, but its a pain and wondered if there was a simpler method.

I basically brute forced it by hitting the quote button for one poster and then copy and pasted the others and then copy and paste the quotes brackets.

Is their a simpler way of quoting more than one person per post?

No, you have to do it manually.

Right-click on the quote button under each of the posts you want to quote and open each one in a new window, then copy and paste if you want your reply to be all in one post. But most of the time it makes more sense to reply to each of them in separate posts....

Practice. I see your point about separate posts but every so often...
