Default How do you "quote"?
I was trying to figure out how to 'quote' someone in my response to them. I see peoples responses that say something like:

Quote:

Thanks!

Simply click the 'Quote' button on the lower right hand side of the person's post.

Or alternatively you can use the Quote tags like this:
[quote=Quote Example]Example quote[/quote]

The above example would appear as
