How to quote with Motorcyclenewsgroups.com and Talkaboutmotorcycles.com

Along with Google Groups, two other web interfaces have been spotted
being used to post to RMH. While not the best of mediums to use to
converse with newsgroups, I'll add my two cents on how to quote with
them since I've created accounts on both.

Once you hit the "reply" button below the message, on the "Post Reply"
page, above where you type your text in, you'll see a link to "Quote
Original Message". Click on that and the original message will be
displayed. Edit as necessary paying particular attention to proper
attribution. Enter your reply below the quoted text.

This web interface to newsgroups offers no option to quote the previous
message(s). To properly quote, you must copy the original message and
paste the text into the "Comments" box below (If you don't know how to
copy and paste, read the documentation that came with the word
processing application on your computer). Then you should add the
additional quote markers (normally the " > " sign) so the latest
message or reply doesn't appear as *your* reply . Edit as necessary
paying particular attention to proper attribution. Enter your reply
below the quoted text.
