Lately, when I quote the post I am referring to, the line, which used separate the quote from my post is not there. I noticed that other's post are the same. I always delete the irrelevant bits of the quotes, and now I started turning the quotes into Italic, and inserting my own break lines, but this morning I noticed some posts, which had number of quotes and no break line, and basically it was impossible to know where the quote ended and the post started.
Considering that for years I had problems reading this forum because the letters were so tiny, and I only recently found out that was due to my setting, I wonder if this has something to do with me or if it is like that for everybody? There used to be time when quotes were in separate frame and different colors.
Solved! Go to Solution.

Kazumi, can't seem to be able to help with this one in settings.
Can you quote me without doctoring it?
I'd like to see what turns up.
I've checked a lot of your other posts and it doesn't seem to be what you're describing.
The line of 0000000000's is weird, is that you?
Maybe, on your end, you can clear cookies and cache - or even just browsing history might kick it back in. ????

Sometimes when quoting, the cursor appears above the line, I've noticed, and I have to physically move it below.
Maybe that's what's happening, and you haven't noticed?
Dunno.

Here's how it just worked on my computer with your post anyway, when I went to quote. Is this what you mean?
Mine has never come out with a quote in a different colour unless i manually change the colour myself.

I get rid of irrelevant parts as well so the posts don't become overly long.
That generally happens when the lines are deleted by mistake by the person who has posted the quotes.
It also happens when others have written inside the quote or copied and then pasted a different quote inside
the quote section.
I use the blue text when writing inside a quote to differentiate it and black if writing at the bottom outside the
quote lines.

This post does have the line between my post and the quote. The different color background for the quote was very many years ago, like 15?. The answer came out in new frame, it was a very obvious what is what .
