So, I've seen this for some time. And it came to question me tonight when I saw LifeLearner's post in my Thread. @LifeLearner http://www.sandlotminecraft.com/index.php?threads/christmas.26223/page-2
Whenever I do it, I click Reply on the post I want to quote and copy the text in the text box. Then I paste it into the thread I want to show that quote in.
Aidan, I don't understand your question. When a player starts a new thread, with the same kind of information from an existing thread, I move the post and delete the duplicate thread. I send the thread originator a note to say why I deleted their thread. That is why the moved post will say "Reposted from another thread." This is part of our moderating duties. I use the procedure that @Kyukuro described above.
For example, @LifeLearner, in some threads I've seen people reply to let's say, one of Sandlot's rules on that page to another page. EDIT: Oh, looks like @Kyukuro answered my question. Thanks anyway Life Please delete/lock this thread
