Quoting multiple posts and some acronyms

Featured Replies

Hi,

I just discovered this Forum Help for the first time. Amazing!!!

How do I include multiple quotes from different posts in a thread in my reply:

eg

You're a [censored]

[endquote: user1]

You are too.

[endquote: user2]

I've tried to hit the quote button on both posts but only one ever gets copied in. I do believe my contributions to this site would add so much more value to my already existing fabulous input if this problem was sorted.

Also, I don't understand some acronyms; namely:

NQR: not quite right (?)

meh: not used so often here but is all over the place on chat sites. I have no idea what this means!!!!

Thanks for any help you can provide on the above and apologies if this has already been asked before.

Geeks like Nasher ( B) ) with have a more technical answer but to do it you need to open two windows within your internet browser the Demonland and reply to one thread and cut and paste that quote into the second screen where you reply to another thread. Its clunky but works.

NQR is correct. meh is an expression of disregard where you indignant turn your nose up and say sarcastically "yeah right".

I think it's more ambivalent - 'meh' can express disdain, but more often it's indifference.

 

Thanks for the feedback.

Actually there's a much easier way to quote two posts. Each post has a 'quote' button on it. When you click it it turns red. Click that button for all the posts you want to quote, then scroll to the bottom or top of the screen and click 'Add reply'. If you do this right each post will be in your reply.

And here's me, dropping it all into a Word file first then copying it back into my forum reply...

titan uranus... you have all the rings.
