    Ohhhhh!!! Now I get it! :T


    Still... I like to compose my replies with individual posts in individual tabs. So I'll just do it my way. :p



    The problem I find is that quoting someone never includes the quotations they made, so you often have to go back and copy the quote they were replying to so your response makes sense. :-/


    It shouldn't be that hard for the "Quote" button to show embedded quotes... should it...?

    Go to the previous one, quote that with multi-quote, then quote the one that replied to it.

    Edit either or both if necessary to include only the salient points.
