I can answer that for you! You highlight the part you want then right click and copy it. Then you highlight it again once you have placed it where you want then wrap it in quote tags (the 1 on the top righthand side) Then you put a = sign and the persons name (in the quote box part) I hope that makes sense.

There's an easier and faster way to quote someone's post - see the little yellow "quote" box in the lower right corner of the post you want to quote? Click on that, and it automatically opens a new post window with that post included as a quote. If you don't want to quote the whole thing, delete the rest of it, and post your comments and additions below. Voila!

When viewing who's online, wgy does it sometimes say "Replying to Thread" and show the thread's name with orange (a link) and sometimes only "Replying to Thread"?

This has been troubling me for a while now...

There are a couple of restricted subforums: one open only to mods/admins; one to mods/admins and a few other posters.

EDIT: make that 'restricted'

Oh, thanks. That cleared it.

Hidden sunforums sounds... sneaky.

Ok, there has been a mysterious disappearance of the 'spiders' that normally can be found crawling around the site when checking who's online. And it has caused a thread regarding it to pop up in the Novice and Newcomers section. I was wondering if anyone here knows if a switch has been flipped or box checked somewhere to hide the critters.

It had been a rather nice way of coming across older threads.

I'm just wondering if there is any way of stopping all these advertisements and spammers that have mysteriously started popping up frequently.
It’s a tad annoying to be browsing the Downs, only to see these spams everywhere.
