Ok, stupid question on using the website. Sure hope it was ok to post it in here.
I am wondering how you guy's edit your titles of your threads? I tried to edit my title on my thread about my buzzer and it tells me I can't edit it because it has been posted over 200000 minutes ago, give or take. LOL I would have liked to make the title say something about "update" or something to that effect.
Also another one is how do you do double quotes in a post? Sometimes I would like to make one post but quote two different people. I haven't figured that one out yet either!
Thanks!

Quoting is done by copy persons quote add quote tag paste quote and preview.

Posts over a certain number of days can not be edited. If you PM a moderator with a link to the post and what you want changed, we can make it for you.

Ok, thanks! I don't like bothering the "mods" so I will just leave well enough alone! The people can figure out it was updated on their own! LOL
Also thanks everyone for how to do double quotes. I know some forums actually have a tag that you can click on to quote several people so I was looking for that and not seeing it. Now I know how to do it though.
Thanks!
PS. thank for moving this to the rite area Everett. Shows that I don't get out of the Bay forum often! LOL

Seriously, don't worry about bothering the moderators, they like helping people out. Plus it makes a nice change from complaints. Or, you can always send a quick message to me (I'm much less busy than anyone else  )

Editing info, from a search of the Site Forum

Quoting:
Use the quote button above or do what I do... hit quote on both people you want to quote, then cut & paste the text from one into the other so both are quoted there. |
Hopefully a newer version of the board software will have the 'Multi Quote' option. I see it on some of the other boards I frequent
