    Multi quote?

    What does it do? I clicked it out of curiosity and it turned green but nothing happened.

    It's just to select the post to quote ... you still have to click post reply. It's "multi" because you can do it as many times as you like.

    If you want to respond to multiple post quoting them all then click multi on the first one. Carry on clicking multi on any subsequent ones until you reach the final post you wish to quote, then click quote in that one. You should find yourself in the reply to post window with all the other posts quoted.

    The clever thing with multi quote (I tried this the other day) is that it seems to work even if you select posts on separate pages of the thread. I was impressed

    That's clever, but now I think I know how they do it.

    Is it magic? Or psychic energy?

    Go to the theatre, read books, use "women of the night", the cinema, watch TV.
    In summary, get a life and stop using all your time discussing unwinnable (due to people ignoring anything that goes against their world view) arguments on line.

    ETA: Maybe I should take my own advice sometimes.

    Yes. "Women of the night" would work out much better for you than those ladyboys you usually hire.
