Hi,

When hitting 'reply with quotes' can the forum be set to include the username of the post being quoted?

It is really infuriating to scroll through a long post of quotes and requotes where it's difficult ro discern where the quote of one person ends and the quote of another user begins.

Sounds like a reasonable suggestion just not sure how it will work with re-re-quotes we'll add it to our list and have a look

On other forums I've used it tends to be displayed as a box within a box within a box etc, but I can see how that may break the look and feel of the site if you implement that style.

Even if it had 'Quote: username:' in front of the piece being quoted with perhaps a horizontal rule at the end, it would make it much easier to decipher long quoted posts.
