Yes,. that is the easiest way if you want to quote another user's post.
If you are trying to do it manually there is also a "quote" button on the Reply screen.
You press it once to start what you want to quote and once to end it.
it will end up looking something like this

That error:
It sounds like your web browser might be auto-filling the "email" and confirm email" fields with the wrong/a different email than your current email on your account and that email happens to be registered to another user. You might have made another account in the past and forgotten about it.
Check that...
PM me what you want to put in the signature and I'll do it if you can't get it to work and verify I don't get that error too. _________________ How to Post Photos

Thanks buddy- I noticed that when I go to my profile page, the confirm email and the current password boxes are highlighted and the confirm email box has user name in it. I've tried changing the confirm email box to my email but when I click to submit, it changes back to my user name and nothing can be changed
I have been using the same user name and the password " lucki for a while. _________________ John

Your web browser is auto-filling that when it shouldn't be, although usually you can simply overwrite it or blank it out.
If it won't let you do that, you might have to clear the auto-filling stuff for thesamba.com in the browser settings page.
How it should be:
When you open the Control Panel page:
Email and Confirm Email should have your correct email in them.
The 3 password fields should be blank _________________ How to Post Photos

Thanks to you and Jennifer.
I deleted both the confirm email and password, refilled those and changed my password. I think it's working now.
Thanks again _________________ John
