The quote function here is awful

[Ichthys]

If I don't want to quote the entire post, I highlight the part I want to quote then use the quote button. That saves having to delete all the bits I don't want to quote.

Two new things in one day. It’s like being back at school !
Thanks @Essjay

i totally forgot this existed since it was so confusing to me...
i feel that it is not complicated at all, and most times i just click "reply" anyway

I never use the quote button. I do use the reply button and delete what I don't want. I find the reply button much easier to deal with than the quote button.

I suspect that nothing could be done about it, it's just the way Xenforo does things.
Forum softwares blossom and wane over time as the developers try to cash in or get bored.
Xenforo seems to be the hot ticket these days

I don't have any problems with quoting...
