This may be the simplest thing to do...but how do you all quote someone when you post a reply?? I've tried clicking on quote, but it quotes the person whole message. How do I just pull out a sentence or two??
I know I must be missing something here.....
When I quote someone and just want a sentence or two, I click the Quote button and just delete everything that I don't want.

Okay..I tried and it didn't highlight the box of the person I was quoting!
What am I doing wrong? Seems too simple, but....
It took me awhile to figure it out too..click on the quote button to the right of the message of the person you want to quote (not the quote button above) then you can just delete what you dont want. I dont know if there is a way to just quote a line or something. I tried highlighting then hitting the quote, but it doesnt work.
edited because I dont know my left from right!
Sorry, merissa...I must be blind! The only quote button I see is the one above the message...I don't see one to the left.
I don't think it was meant to be this hard! Thanks for your patience!
Thanks for your patience!
I just wanted to see if I could do it

I was trying it out, because I've never done it before. I clicked the button in the upper right of your message that says, "quote." I took out part of the message, but didn't delete the brackets.

Okay, let's try again...the other one had more info than I wanted. I bet my 8 year old could do this easier than I could!! Sad...
