This is driving me crazy. If i have previously selected multiple posts to quote in a reply on a thread, every time I go to post a new reply, those old posts are still quoted. I've tried refreshing, going to a different page, etc. How can I clear out the posts I previously selected for multiple quotes?

For all the trash I talk, I sure own a lot of Macs...

Go to the offending thread and click on the + icon of the post you keep quoting.

That's a pain in the ass. I have four threads quoted from one thread, on a page out of 9 - I don't know which. I wish there was a button to let you clear it with one click.

If they ever manage to locate the right piece of code, there will be someday. At the moment, though, I think the only way (apart from manually finding the posts and unchecking them) is to clear your cache—that should get rid of it. It’ll also get eid of a lot of other things you don’t want gotten rid of, of course.

That's why I don't use those. They suck, becuase they stay quoted forever.
