    Question about board usage.

    How I can never get the board to display "Posted by 'blah blah blah' when I quote someone?"

    Sorry - I wasn't too clear - press the quote button in the loewr right corner of the post you want to quote instead of pressing "Reply"

    Seems to be working. You're pressing the other quote button. You need to press quote instead of reply.

    Only you need to practice if you want to get the quotes off quickly.
