I've noticed that the way I quote from another post does not indicate the original poster, but others using quotes do indicate who the original poster was.
How do I quote from a post and get the cool "orignally posted by" notice to show?

You mean like this? :lolabove:
Hit the "quote" button as seen below and to the right of this post!
And you can quote me on that, if you want. :lol:

Or you can click the "Quick Reply" icon, answer the post, and check the "Quote message in reply?" checkbox. The other option is easier because it's one step instead of two.

Just click the multiquote button http://sowal.com/bb/images/buttons/multiquote_off.gif (http://www.sowal.com/bb/newreply.php?do=newreply&p=430952) under any post you want to quote and then click "post reply" and all the quotes will show up in the message box.

Be warned that the Quote function has a tendency to get out of kilter every now and then, especially for some reason in the Political Forum.:idontno:
I guess they wore it out. :lol:
