QUOTING OTHER POSTS

Post by TrueBlueTerrier »

A lot of posts quoting others posts get corrupted because people are deleting the wrong quotes.

Easiest way to do it count the quote="member" and make sure that you have the same amount of /quote at the end.

Just as important make sure each quote code has both an opening [ and a closing ]

eg

[quote="teebs"][quote]=TBT][quote="Moderator"]1[/quote]2][/quote]3[/quote]

would come out as

It's good to get these types of threads, the ridiculous my manager said bollox, so we can reassure ourselves that while the world is falling apart, Royal Mail managers are still being the low-life C***S they have always been.

The daily grind of having to argue your case with an intellectual pigmy of a line manager is physically and emotionally draining.
