I'm more than positive your Sim Battle board is setup exactly like this.

PHPBB boards are like that. The name is just for you to put in whatever after "Originally Posted By [X]". Besides, don't you usually use the quote button anyways?

Or just about any name you put here. Not bad.

I guess you have to put [ instead of <. Just learned that now.

I like it. However, I don't like how it smashes all them together. LIke, it'll show up nice when it's posted, but when you quote multiple things, it's all smooshed together. And as you can tell, I like to leave out long conversations (because we already know what was said, I just like to get to the point), so it's a little hard to decipher. But much less altogether.


Wow, this is much easier! I don't see the smooshing so much... at least I don't think it would be a problem unless we have this huge pyramid of quotes in one post.


**blinks** So basically, the difference is that it shows who the people that you're quoting, are quoting?

I think I can see where Evo says it's smooshed together...I think. **gets dizzy** Like there it's quoting Elara, who quotes Evo, who quoted Syntax...This is definitely much easier though, if I quote someone, I do what Evo does sometimes and only quote part of it. It's easier to see the bracket that ends it rather than those tags and stuff. I've F*cked up many quotes before.

Hmmmm.

Edit, sweet ... it works!

Thanks to Syntax for telling me what to do.

Basically, you can see that to quote someone now, all you have to do is type in ['quote=(username/whatever']text here blah['/quote']

Instead of: <blockquote> <i> "originally posted by blauser" </i> <hr> text here <hr></blockquote>

Yeah, the old way needed like 50 tags for it to work, so it's just much nicer and easier to quote people now, and cleaner.



Interesting.... I like this way much better


Hmmmm?
(Seeing if a lot works, lol)

Seems a little buggy possibly.
