Easy. If you want to quote someone's post, simply click on the 'quote' button at the top-right of each post and you'll be taken to the post reply screen with the quoted post there for you to use as you see fit. :P

If you want to do it manually, you can do the following (leaving out the spaces inside the square brackets):

[ quote="poster" ] copy and paste the person's post here [ /quote ].

So, if I were to quote the first sentence from your post, I would write the following:

[ quote="collingwoodfan" ]Hi sorry i didnt now where to post this topic and thought this would be the most approprite place.[ /quote ]

You can then write whatever you want below this, or even quote another user separately using the same code.

Hope this made sense. :)
