The question you seem to be asking is, "how can I delete my post?"

You cannot. If you make a mistake, edit your post to leave an admin note and a moderator will remove it.

You have up to one hour after posting a reply to edit your posts, after that you cannot.

Double quotes

Post by admin »

How to make double quotations.

If users can avoid complex double or triple quotation, and quoting themselves, we would appreciate it very much. If they can do so, then moderator formatting errors will not arise.


The correct way to make a double quotation is as follows;
first member wrote:First text quotation ...
second member wrote:Second text quotation ...
Is written like so;

Code: Select all

[quote="first member"]First text quotation ...[/quote][quote="second member"]Second text quotation ...[/quote]
Not ...
first member wrote:First text quotation ...
Which is written like so;

Code: Select all

[quote="first member"]First text quotation ...
[quote="second member"]Second text quotation ...[/quote]
[/quote]

If I click "quote", I get the whole writing. That is of no use. Quote means: you take some lines. The only way I know how to quote is copy and paste ...

That is the way it works for everyone.

Of course, it is "of use". You just select and delete the bits you do not want. The quote comes up ready made with the other member's name. Its easier to just select and delete text rather than write in who wrote what.
