Nah, you have to have smiley armies.

I'm so confused as to why that matters.

Hi, Kari. We are thinking of how we can make a best quotes thread of just this thread.

I really think it's going to be easier in the long run to copy them one at a time. But I guess we can all use our own methods if we'd prefer.

What I mean is click on "quote" and get the plain text code, the same way you would if you were responding to someone. Otherwise, you're right, it won't work.

But I'm really okay with doing it this way. It sounds rough, but if you think in terms of 10 pages at a time, it'll fly by.

Because when you type
in Word, it's going to look just like it's typed...it's not going to make a square box. It doesn't take commands like the Internet does.

Holy shit, Juli, that RegCure thing is nice. Pages are loading even faster now (and that's on a cable connection).

But that won't matter, because when you paste is back over to the forums, it will.

I'm agreeing with you, Lurker...I'm saying that Word won't do it.

That shouldn't be a problem, though, once you paste it into the forum, right?

Smilies must be included.

All you have to do is have two internet browsers up, one of where you are quoting from and one where you want the quote to be. Click 'quote' on the post you want and copy the text into the other browser. I don't see why you'ld have to use Word at all.

As for HTML, I have no idea what that is.

Ok, maybe you're right, Mary.

I feel like a dumb ass.

I'm about to take my leave. But, on retrospect, I have an final and an AP course exam coming up, so I'm probably not going to have time for 100 pages. Can I take the 50 after Lurker?

This is how I'm going to do it. I think it's more trouble the other way.

HTML is the code you see when you copy and paste in myspace, Kari.

It's fine with me.

So far we have:
Me--the first 100
Lurker--the second 100
Mary--the next 50

Am I right?

Yeah, that'll be real easy.

Though I'll probably save it into Word along the way, just in case the browser dies halfway through the process or something. 'Cause that would suck.
