since you haven’t already, i suggest that you go through the the forum’s tutorial.
if you use the full-text quote tool, it will quote the full text.
in your example, it looks like you’re going in afterward and trying to break the quote in to two quotes by adding a [/quote]
at the end of the first paragraph and then a [quote]
at the beginning of the next paragraph and then trying to type your comments in between. this is not the right way to effectively do 2 partial quotes.
the easiest way to do a partial quote is just to highlight the part of a previous post that you want to quote, and then select “quote” when it pops up.
