Default Forum tutorial: Reducing spam by the multi-quote button - 03-08-2007, 02:59 AM
Ok so I noticed that a lot of the double-posting is caused by people quoting two different people. Soooo I thought I'd do a tutorial on the multi-quote buttons - they're new on these boards, and so handy!!!!

Here it is, down the bottom of the posts:



Just click on the button for the posts that you want to quote, and they will start to glow red. Then click the 'quote' button of the last post.

Viola! Multiple quotes from multiple people!!!! No need to double-post anymore!

Call me Jess.

THANK YOU! I always wondered what magic people were using to quote multiple different responses.

Yay great stuff. Though I'm used to doing it by hand on every other forum so I doubt I'll use it anyways lol
