I have been here for five years and I never really learned how to do this, but how do you quote two different people in the same response?

You could write out the little brackety code yourself or do what I do - right click on the second to-be-quoted to open in a new window, cut all of that and place it in your original to-be-posted or quoted. Is that what you mean?

Maybe he wanted the name of the person he's quoting included like normal, in which case he could take my secondary suggestion. Or just type it out by doing this:

quote:
Originally notposted by UK Legend Killa: I won't rest until I have beaten Prim's post count record
quote:
Originally notposted by Darth Ender either: I'm a noob at heart

But he'd need to type enter after their name to get the full effect.

That is what I have been doing. I just thought there was a shortcup button I didn't know about.

Lots of copying-'n'-pasting.

Not feasible, really.
