    'tis true! I've already written between quotes in the Arms posts, and as for de-clicking the MQ button - well has nobody noticed that it has a "+" (add) symbol on it to start with, but when you click (and it goes red) it changes to a "-" (minus) symbol to mean remove? :p

    I know this is a bit of a silly one but....what exactly is its function and how does it work?

    (I'm blonde, tired and sunburnt so forgive the idiocy today).

    Thank you thank you thank you MSE for this! Really useful in the Arms :D

    Peeps. You click on the MQ button for the posts you want to quote (as I did yours), and it goes Red to show it's been clicked.

    Then when you click Reply to write your response (not the quick reply box at the bottom but the Post Reply button), you'll find it has included all of the posts that you wanted to quote.

    And here was me thinking it didn't work!:D

    I thought it was for quoting various sections out of a single post!
