    Default Post quoting

    How do I quote all the sources in a single post? Right now, replying to a post quotes only the author, and not any of the posters the author is quoting. I want to do this:

    [.quote=Quote1][.quote=Quote2]You're a jerk.[/quote]No I'm not![/quote]
    Yes you are.

    Which will result in:
    Quote Originally Posted by Quote1

    Yes you are.

    I thought "Multi-quote" was for this, but it turns out it's for something else. I often want to quote in context so the thread of a conversation is not lost, but now I have to do it manually, and it's very painful, and I usually give up. Can anyone help?

    I see your problem, I'll try and find a work around but no promises. Indeed that can be frustrating.
