Quoting Text

I've noticed that when I quote text in a thread, my quote doesn't come out with 'xyz person said:' it just comes out with the actual text. Do I need to do something different like highlight more when copy and pasteing? Please explain!

SashET wrote:

begin with (quote="SashET"] "what they said" end with [/quote)

got to use the [] brackets, took me a while to figure it also :wink:
