Total newb question here - how do I specifically quote other users posts in my own? I know how to quote something generally, just curious how to attach the users name to it. Thanks!

Click the quote button at the top right of a post. Unless you mean you want to write something in quote tags with a name attached? Then it's just {quote=name}Quote{/quote} In square brackets.

In a similar way, how does the multi-quote button work? I've been having to fiddle with the pseudo-HTML to multi-quote, as i could never figure out how the button worked...

Note to the reader: my username is not arrogance. No, my name is taken from the most excellent of commanders: Lord Castellan Creed, of the Imperial Guar- I mean Astra Militarum - who has a special rule known only as "Tactical Genius"... Although nowhere near as awesome as before, it now allows some cool stuff for the Guar- Astra Militarum - player. FEAR ME AND MY TWO WARLORD TRAITS. |

You hit the multi-quote button on the posts you want to get the quotes from then hit the standard "Reply" button. All posts you hit the button for will be there as quotes. You'll notice that the text on the button goes white.
