There's an idea. I hadn't thought of that. It wouldn't notify them that they had been quoted but at least it would be there if they went and looked.

And I wouldn't even have to use the quote box as it would be unnecessary since it wouldn't be notifying anyone anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But remember I can't transfer multiple quote boxes anyway since when you hit quote it only opens the box in the window that you are in (and the post is in the other one) so it's just a vicious circle and if I open multiple blank boxes in the text I'll still have the problem of having to manually attribute each one anyway so I'm going to rethink this and will probably opt for the idea of just posting a "Readers Digest" version and instead of many quotes, I'll just summarize most of them and then only quote those where I can't.
