This is a site for discussing roleplaying games. Have fun doing so, but there is one major rule: do not discuss political issues that aren't directly and uniquely related to the subject of the thread and about gaming. While this site is dedicated to free speech, the following will not be tolerated: devolving a thread into unrelated political discussion, sockpuppeting (using multiple and/or bogus accounts), disrupting topics without contributing to them, and posting images that could get someone fired in the workplace (an external link is OK, but clearly mark it as Not Safe For Work, or NSFW). If you receive a warning, please take it seriously and either move on to another topic or steer the discussion back to its original RPG-related theme.

That Other Site has functions for multi-quoting in a thread, letting you flag a post for followup and then reply to all the ones you want once you hit the quote button on a post. They've got another feature running that I've come to love: quoted text has a small link by the name which will take you to the post that was quoted, so you can read the full text instead of the blurb the quoter wants to highlight.

They also use vBulletin, albeit v 3.6.8. If its possible after the upgrade, it'd be great to have these tools here too.

The new version has the link, but I don't know about multi-quoting. If it's an option that can be turned on, that's one thing, but if it's a custom feature, it may or may not be possible.

If you remind me when we finally upgrade, I'll see what I can do about multi-quoting. Personally, I don't like it, but I think you post more than me.

Well, maybe just a smidge more. :)
