What the hell is this crap?
When I quote Post B, which already has a quote from Post A in it, the quote from Post A in Post B no longer shows up. What is wrong with you bastards that you can't even maintain little things like this that are among the few remaining factors holding this dump above the level known as Absolute Garbage?
I have to type in [ qq = " username " ] manually. And it doesn't go past that, e.g. [ qqq ] doesn't work at all. Which is weird, because I have old PMs that would work like that just fine, and probably old posts too.
edit: Wait, I know a solution! *spams BoB's PM box with... well... spam*
I don't know why we stopped that, it was probably because people were stretching the tables and spamming up using those mass-quotes or something. I'll wait for whoever made the decision to remove them first, but yeah, I'm all for bringing back multi-quotes.
Bow before the mighty Javoo!
I blame crono_logical, he made quote pyramids in peoples usernotes.
It NEVER did that.
Never ever ever.
Unless you did it manually? Is that what you're talking about?

Yep, like Kane said...it has never worked for me using the Quote button. The only time that it will come up with the other quote for me is when I go into Edit/Delete. Of course, only Staff can do this. I copy from the Edit/Delete window and paste into the Quote window. Or I type in the tags. It's a pain, but I just thought that that was the way it had to be. BoB, you mean it doesn't!?

Nope, I'm quite sure we can fix that. I'll fix it now and if Unne or clout or whoever had a decent reason for not enabling it, then they can disable it again. If people abuse it and make pyramid quotes, though, I'll probably end up disabling it again so DO NOT ABUSE! And if people start abusing it send them a PM saying "Noooo! Don't abuse it or BoB will disable the function again and everyone will be unhappy because of YOUR abuse! You arse!" ...Or something.Originally Posted by Leeza
EDIT: Actually, it looks like I'll need to modify one of the files as the function must have been removed from the admin CP (or else I'm just delusional and don't know where I got that idea from, which is quite possible). I'm sure the other guys won't mind, though, so yeah.
For any admin wondering what needs to be done, it's here. Obviously a very minor edit, so if you guys are happy I'll go ahead with it. *waits for Cid, Unne or clout, since they're the more technical minded admins*

I still haven't got FTP access, so someone else can do it
EDIT: Samuraid should be capable of fixing this too
Oh, I'll do it, I just didn't want to make the call on my own. *goes to do it now*
EDIT: Also, Samuraid should have sent you FTP info already, clout. I know he sent it to Spatvark after I requested him to send it to Spatty and all admins, so yeah.
EDIT: Done... time to do a quick test.
Bow before the mighty Javoo!
Oh yeah, he has, I've even updated my FTP client with it, I guess I just forgot about it
*deletes his triple post*
Okay, it works.

I'm trying it on your post clout and all I'm getting is a blank box. I don't have BoB's quote or a quote from you.
EDIT: Maybe that's because you deleted it.
EDIT: Thank you. It does appear to be working now. Good job.
Hello Pika Art by Dr Unne ~~~ godhatesfraggles
How could someone have fixed it using FTP though? Isn't it an option in the admin CP (like 'quote embedding' or something?)
Dunno, I thought it was something about editing the php files, I didn't actually bother to read what needed to be done properly
I don't think it's an option in the vB CP, but it can be edited through the templates under BB Code Layout Templates > bbcode_quote.
