There actually is a way to cite these quotes in MLA format. For the main citation (on the "Works Cited" page) you put down the name and address of the message board. When you do an in-text citation, you put down something like "...(Barrow Downs, post 7)" I think. And, to clarify the speaker of the quote, you'd just put his/her name in the sentence in which you quote them somewhere.

And thanks guys for your extra permission. I just wanted to be really sure it was okay for me to quote you. I will tell you all about the paper when I find out how it went (I've got to do a presentation on it Wednsday).
