Default Re: Quotes - how do I do them?

I'm bumping this thread again as the moderators are finding we have to delete and trim unnecessary quotes.

Please, as explained in this thread, (scroll up to read it, just like we all can to read earler posts without them being quoted,) only quote when you really have to.

If you need to quote, (replying to one point in a long post or replying to a much earlier post,) please edit the quoted section down to only what's relevant.

Cheers, Kat
