Hi,
See some people quote more than one person, was wondering how to do this.
I just did it by opening two tabs of the same thread, reply on one person which gives me the automatically quote thing, the in the other tab replied to another person, copy-pasted this in the reply of the first tab and posted it.
To me this looks a bit like too much work, or is this simply the way to do it? (love simple solutions, as probably every one :-) )

Thanks.

Your way is easier than my way: I quote one person automatically and the other(s) manually. Though my way is cleaner since you end up with all these other tabs you probably don't want and thus will have to close immediately. It doesn't take me long to copy and paste someone's name and what they typed.

Computers are all about automatic actions I would say, so manually writing names is something where Murphy tends to walk in: something can and therefore will go wrong

I second this idea, BUT Murphy's law does always come into play and I almost always have to re-edit to unbold or unquote where I forgot to close a vB tag.

I edited my post to say that I copy and paste the name as well.

P.S. I wonder if you misspelled "therefore" incorrectly to prove your point

What do you mean?

Copy/paste. As for missing vB tags, that's why there are Preview and Edit buttons. Not hard at all.
