Make your writing look more appetizing

Writing well is important, but dressing up your writing is also important.

I recently noticed there are some members who have difficulties to quote the previous post.

selected comment is added to the message window between a
wrote: and
block.

For example,
to quote a piece of text Tigereye wrote:
"Tigereye" wrote:

The text wrote by Tigereye go here
It will appear as bellow:

You can delete the text you don't need in the quote but be sure you are not removing the
wrote: and
block.
Than you write your own comment.

Another method is to make pairs of open quote tag and closed quote tag.

Copy the text you prefer to quote and paste it between the quote tags.
wrote: and


See example bellow:

I believe I can fly.....
