Quoting multiple posts

When responding to multiple posts within a thread, I feel it would be far easier to be able to click "quick reply with quote" and each quote gets pasted to a master quick reply box down the bottom - rather then 2-3 smaller quick reply sections that we would have to copy & paste into one.

It is slightly annoying in its current state to reply to multiple quotes within a thread, or going back and editing your previous post to include the 2nd quote to avoid double posting.

This makes for a cleaner thread.

There is a checkbox to the lower-right of each post without a name, if you hover the button over it it says 'Multi-quote this message'.
Check all of those yo uwant and click "Reply to Thread" and you put all of those quotes here, just hw i've done.

However, another thing that is also problematic is when quoting a post with a quote in it the sub-quotes all die, despite the forum supporting it.

Wow, I missed that!
It's not the most visible of features, but it does do the trick :-)

I knew about the multi-quote, but it would be really nice if sub-quotes worked so you don't have to go through the effort of finding where the original quoted message was.

That said, there is the danger of lazy people not editing out irrelevant sub-quotes resulting in ridiculously long posts...
