[QUOTE="1982vett, post: 615682, member: 7795"] While you are gone, take a little time and study this to try to learn the purpose of the words and letters in brackets and quotation marks. I have quoted a post from backhoeboogie that quoted you. All I did was change all the brackets to parentheses so that the words and letters would be part of the post and show the effect they have. On the tip hat I deleted one colon. Under this post is what the post looks like when all the brackets and punctuation are in their proper places. If by error one is deleted when shortening whatever you want to post, go back and fix the brackets and punctuation. It saves a lot of reading when one recognizes the quote but has to read thru all of it to figure where the new post begins. Most folks get it after a short time but it seems you haven't taken time to figure it out yet. (quote="backhoeboogie)(quote="4CTophand")(b)--my last post. :tiphat (/b)(/quote) (quote="4CTophand") (b)This post can now be closed. Next Subject Please-- but any further posts from me will have to wait until I get back from Oxfordshire, UK[/b][/quote] (quote="4CTophand")see yall in a month(/quote) It looks like you have a trend going here.(/quote) The beginning will look similar to this, (Keep in mind I used an asterisk instead of quote marks to be able to show and tell) [i][/i][i][/i] Now look what happens when I replace the asterisks with actual "quote marks" A screen full of chopped up posts are the result if any of the directives are out of place. [b]HAVE A GOOD MONTH[/b] :tiphat: [/QUOTE]
