Quotes

[Mikedamaniak]

So I tried quoting somebody, but instead of putting in a quotebox it just put in the code things for the quotes, with the brackets and slashes and whatnot, anyone know why this is.

That is the quote box you need to do [QUOTE] *text here* [/QUOTE} (swap the } for ] at the end) then when you send it it will become the quote box.

With forum replies, if you do anything visual to your responses, a code will be put in so that the forums will pick this up and output it accordingly. So yes, the quote code will come up, then you write your quote in the middle of where it says [QUOTE]

[quote]Texthere[ /quote]


(without space in [ /quote]

These codes are known as BB Codes, and there are many that can be used. A full list of codes available to us is listed here. (http://www.virtualteen.org/forums/misc.php?do=bbcode)

If this is not to your liking, you can switch to a different editor, here (http://www.virtualteen.org/forums/profile.php?do=editoptions#sel_showvbcode). Choose the "Enhanced Interface" option, and you won't see the code anymore.
