Have you been quoted in someone's post & never wrote?

Hmmm...you could modify it on the other board...I suppose you can here too. Just start and click your back button or delete key in what is quoted.

Seems to be working just fine to me. What are you talking about? 

No. Even if I could turn off the option to quote from a post directly, members could still use quote tags to create a quote and include your name. That was the case at the bucket too - just you didn't get notification there. If someone starts doing that repeatedly/maliciously, that should be reported as I'd consider that to be against the TOS (specifically the clause that prohibits providing false or misleading information).

I'm sure it was accidental in this case, when a post which already contains quotes is quoted, it can be a bit glitchy/tricky.

THis board is a bit tricky for quoting. ESPECIALLY when quoting someone who quoted someone else.
Looks like someone quoted you, then someone tried to quote the person who quoted you and they attempted to edit out your quote. But they deleted too much so their edit looks like you said the words of the second person.

Annoying but not necessarily a big deal. Easy enough most times to go back to the original posts to see what was really said. And a heads up for others to be super careful when editing quotes that they don't end up accidentally attributed to the wrong poster.

Ahhhh, thank you for explaining that. I was wondering about the same thing.

I was enjoying some blueberry pomegranate sorbet and came close to spitting it all over my iPad when I read Trollie's post!

Trollie obviously showed us how posts can be edited or even doctored, but hopefully no one does such a thing maliciously. I sometimes edit posts down that are long when I want to quote them, especially if I want to make clear which part of the post I am responding to. It was being glitchy today, but I think I caught it before it got weird. I hope.

Yes, but I think it's mainly just that people are too lazy to figure out how to use the quote feature properly. I guess there are a few who would change it, but more often than not, it's just user error on the quote feature.

It can happen by mistake, particularly if someone is quoting a thread with multiple quotes in it.

If you quote a full post, and then remove some of it that isn't necessary, you might accidentally "give credit" to the wrong person.

It's easy to accidentally put your cursor in the quote box, when replying and including a quote. And in the reply window, it's pretty much impossible to get your cursor back UNDER the quote, so you can write and have it appear as a reply and NOT the quote. You have to click on the "bbc code" button to put your cursor back out of the quote so you can type a reply.

So, I've definitely noticed people using the quote feature and then typing their reply in the quote, so it looks like all one big quote. But it's fairly easy to pick up on, as those replies tend not to have any reply text in them, are just one quote that when read in full don't make much sense. I've so far just chalked it up to an irritating cursor and code issue, lack of attention/knowledge on how to fix it, and not any type of nefarious intention in trying to make the person being quoted look poorly.
