Dear Friends,
I see quite a few posts these days where inappropriate usage of quotes spoils the readability of the thread.
I am writing the following lines as a guideline so that everyone is benefited -
1) Select the text that you want to quote
2) With the text selected click on the 'Quote' box which is directly above the text box area where you are typing.
3) Finally before you click on submit , please Uncheck the 'Disable BBC Code' checkbox which is located below the text box area.
4) A better idea still is to permanently uncheck this 'Disable BBC Code feature' using
Board Preferences -> Edit posting defaults -> 'Enable BBCCode by default'
Set this to 'Yes'
This would ensure that whenever you use the quote feature , you would not need to uncheck the check box below your mail.
That's it ...nice and easy
Dear moderators ,
Please feel free to move this post to whichever section you deem fit.
Thanks and regards,
Spidey

Very timely Spidey .
Better still, if all the above procedure looks complicated, one can address the post to the intended member and give his/her views without any quoting .

Dear Spidey,
Very appropriate post!! Even though it looks simple, there seems to be a need to stress it now.
With appropriately quoting the text, the whole post become unimaginably uncluttered and reader-friendly.
