Quoting Problem when posting

Hi all,

Few things, wonder if anyone can give me a few pointers (i have a feeling i am probably doing something wrong!)

I have noticed that when i quote someone in a reply to a thread it just says "quote" and then the persons name and what they have written followed by what i have put and does'nt section off the bit i am quoting like other peoples replies do when they quote, making it hard to tell what i have quoted and what i have written.
(See my reply to The best artist you've never seen...
thread in the music dicussion area where i have quoted Loopz regarding FSOL and you'll see what i mean...or is this just something i am doing wrong??)

Also i am not sure about anyone else but i always seem to have problems accessing the forum when i get to work in the morning...it usually takes a few goes or leave it till after 9am.
I usually log on automatically as my password and username is cookied...could this be the prob for me?

Or am i infact mad and this is a stupid question!!! :D

Remember to hit the 'close tags' or to close your tags yourself. ie - [/*tag*]

Edit -Or maybe it's just being highlighted in black on black. :)
