How do you 'quote' another post,then have your say without your own post just appearing to be an extention of the post you are quoting please?
I mean viewers need to differentiate between different posters point of view.

I mean viewers need to differentiate between different posters point of view. So,apparently i'm quoting my first post here,but I think it will just appear to be an extention of the quoted post. If you see what i'm trying to explain.

If you see what i'm trying to explain. Yes, see what you mean. We'll see if there are any settings to differentiate between quoted text and the responding text (Which I think is what you;re saying) EDIT: Just viewed this and it does differentiate? ??

You just click the cursor on the line below the text you want to quote and start typing, don't you?

You could always try putting in a horizontal line in between the quote post and your new words of wit & wisdom. Although that doesn't look a great separator.

Are you on a computer? Click into the typing box and click the down arrow a few times until you're on the final line. This will ensure that you're definitely not typing into the quote box.

If you click into the typing/message box on this page, and click the down arrow as many times as you can, it will take mean you are typing 'outside' of the quote.
