I still haven't worked out how to use the MultiQuote function. Either mine is broken or the tools in my shed are not very sharp :P .
I have clicked it and it goes green, but then what do i do?.

Yeah, I've never figured it out either. I just multiquote manually, ie: open a new tab replying to each post I want to quote and copy paste back into my main reply. Perhaps not the most direct method, but it works and is easy.

Click the appropriate "multi quote" button for each post you want to quote. Then click "use full editor". It'll open up a new page in which all of the quoted posts are already present.

Like this. With this amazing new found ability I will now go back through all threads and multiquote in them, just to prove I have learned the skill.

Mmmm... actually I think I'll go to bed. That would be more productive. Good night all.

I am surprised that i didn't think of that .

use full editor or 'add reply'

same thing i think anyway

In Occidental theology, the word transcendent is used to mean outside of the world. In the East, it means outside of thought. To imagine that your definitions of your God have anything to do with that ultimate mystery is a form of sheer idolatry from this standpoint. Your God is good enough for you and mine’s good enough for me. A God, from this point of view, is merely a reflex of one’s ability to conceive of God. Since people have various abilities of this sort, they have various powers of apprehending God.

Might as well go in this old topic since it's a related question:

Is it possible to quote directly to the fast reply box?

Other forum apps I'm used to do this by default if the fast reply is enabled, but it doesn't seem to happen here.
