I have no idea how to do it. Can anyone talk me through it?

What do you mean?

Are you talking about multiple quotes in a post like this?

Quote:

My name is MUD...

Blah blah blah....

Quote:

Gotta get 'im in the ground before he starts to smell...

Yadda yadda yadda...

Quote:

Etc...

--------

Just use the QUOTE tag as many times as you need. If you are quoting multiple posts, an easy thing to do is to use the Quote button on the first one, then post, then go back and Quote the others, copy the code, and then edit and paste it into that post.

You can also nest them like this:

Quote:

What did you see that morning, remember your testimony is being heard by The President.

I saw orbiting lights in the sky! I felt like I needed to go towards them.

I saw them too, and I was captured by aliens that looked like SS agents, and who talked like Brezhnev. I felt altered that morning!

Etc...

-------------

Yes?

If that's what you're asking, here is the code for this post that shows how this works:

Otherwise I've just wasted some finite but yet unknowable percentage of my lifespan. Cheers!

Perhaps a review of Tom Swift's post in the
sticky section would also be in order.

A very helpful post, that is why it is a sticky.

Thanks AZXD. That is what I am looking for. I wanted to be able to address a post thought by thought but didn't know how to do it.

Sorry, I figured aphexafx & Ed Ely had pretty much given you an answer already, so I followed aphexafx with approval of his song choice. Those who understand Primus .......

The only primus song I like is the south park theme.

Oh my god, look at that. It's amazing: A quote character with a plus sign. It's so obvious. Sigh... well now I've learned to. Thanks!

And yes PRIMUS SUCKS!
