To all able2know users: call me a newbie, but i really have no idea how to quote other people's posts within my own post with that dotted line box and the emboldened text saying Quote: . A little help would be very much appreciated. Thanks!

@Butrflynet,
I should save that link (or at least remember the word tutorial to look it up) - I remember thinking that was very useful.

You can just type [ quote ] before, and [ /quote ] after the text you wish to quote. I put spaces in so the "tags" as they are called would show up. To do a real quote, leave out the spaces.

This is what happens if you remove the spaces
