We are set up to do a double embedded (or nested) quote. I think there's a way of doing multiple posts, I'll have to try it and see how it works.

No, Cooter...could you show how it will look in G Scale?

Oh, yeah...we left just in time. The Adult Depends, Viagra and Energizer Bunny pacemaker batteries are just around the corner.

I've been fortunate to have been spared all of that. As a staff member, I was exempt (probably the only perk I got, since they took away me and Mikey's email addressess), but even then, I had Firefox squelch all ads. Occasionally, I had to use my laptop and a pseudo-name to find out what people were talking about with the ads. Yeah, when that "former forum with no name owners" decided to place ads in the posts, and defended it by saying, only those that were not registered could see them, we counted that as the last straw...

Be careful what you ask for. I used to go to quite a few Yahoo boards that covered various aspects of model railroading. I discovered that because "model" was in the title of the board, every porn site and nude model's web site latched on and sent spam. I think there was more porn in some of those sites than there was model railroad content.

It doesn't seem to be too difficult to accomplish.

Nope, but one thing we allow that the old forum under vBulletin didn't, is that we will nest up to two quotes when you hit, "quote". by that I mean, if you are quoting someone, and I quote you, both quotes will show in my post.

You're right, Don. I thought that we could do the "quote within a quote" over there, but I just checked, and it doesn't.
