How do I reply to a post?

If I want to reply to someone's post and have it show with their post, rather than at the bottom by itself, how is this done? I have seen people do this -- the original post is bold and then the reply is not bold and is right underneath.. If I am not making myself clear, I can refer you to a post as an example.


Thanks!

Instead of hitting "post Reply" look fo rthe symbol under their post that says "Quote". (Look below this very post, at the very right side, it is there in a small black box)

Click there, it will enter their quote in your message box and then you can reply to it, or you can edit it so that you can deal with the portion that you want to address.

Hope this helps!!!

Try it with my post here....

Click on the Quote, and then edit it for only a portion, then reply!!!

I think that this is what you are talking about. If so then what you do is hit the quote button on the bottom of the persons post. (Right lower hand corner of the post). It will take you to the page where you type your message. You can edit what you want to out of the original post by cutting it out of the message. Then just type what you want and hit Submit reply.

I hope that I helped and did not totally confuse you!! LOL
