All right I guess its cause I'm new and have a lot of catching up to do, but I get easily confused by quotes. Especially when someone quotes something from like five pages ago. So, I remember on a few forums I've seen (not sure of the system), they made it so that when you quoted someone, it put a button that linked you to that post in the bottom of the quote box. Now maybe my opinion doesn't count for all that much, but I think maybe I'm not the only one who would get use out of this.

So, is it possible?

Well, there may be some sort of a mod for that. It would be helpful from time to time. I'm not guaranteeing anything, but we'll look into it.

Well, you've also got the imbedded link by the top of each post. It's that little papery looking thing, you can right click and get the link from it. There could be a way that you can implement that into your quoting style, mebbe.

edit: viola!
So, is it possible?


Okay, so this is what I did to do that, for ease of sake.
Code:
[quote= "[url=(insert post url here)] name of user [/url]"] insert quote here [/quote]

Ahh...so I figured it out finally. Thanks Capt, even though I never asked anybody...

That's actually not a bad idea. It seems simple enough to do, and could really benefit people in some places.
