multiple quoting

[endlessness]

what about some way to quote multiple people ? Sometimes one wants to quote more than one person, and then you have to click the quote button and it goes straight to the reply, so one has to copy it, go back, click quote the other person, paste both together, copy all again, go back, press quote for another person, and so on...

It's code. Look at the text that is shown in the box when you click the quote button. "quote" in brackets and "/quote" after the message. This puts the text in a box. If you want the "so and so wrote:" you put "quote=soandso" and "/quote" in brackets after.

yes but this can be done automatically without people having to write manually the code..

just like there is the ´quote´ button, some forums have a special quote button that you can click and it doesnt take you straight to your reply, but rather ´remembers´ you are quoting this person.. so you can keep viewing the thread and clicking the ´quote´ button for many ppl´s replies, and once you finally want to reply you click the ´reply´ button and all the quotes are there, no code-typing needed

its nothing essential but would be a nice addition imo, and it has no downsides about it (I guess its not much trouble to set it up)
