I've figured out how to get an avatar, but I haven't figured out how to add the words at the bottom.
I tried "edit signature" but nothing is displaying so that must not be it. So, stressed and Jazz Luvr, how did you do that?
Sometimes you just have to do what feels right with your money instead of what is "optimal". Too many focus on optimal outcomes, when good enough is good enough. (Thanks to Retired @ 50)
oh look! it showed up. How did that happen?

yeah that's handy
But is there a way to undo it?
It works well when you use it, but if you come back to the same thread later then hit "reply with quote" on a new post, you get all of the posts you quoted in your reply box (again)

Just click it again. It'll toggle back off.
You shouldn't, unless you're using the back button on the browser, which is telling the browser "return to the previous page in the state in which I left it" so if you're doing that, and getting the multiple replies quoted again, it's cause you should.

I get them when I come back to the thread, like the next day, which I do through "settings".
So when I want to make a new reply, all the old quotes also come up unless I go back and individually uncheck or individually delete the quotes in the reply window.

When you quick the multi quote button on a reply it takes the content of that reply and sticks it in a cookie. When you reply, the cookie should be cleared. If you don't reply, they'll stay in the cookie for a long time.
If you're finding that you quote, reply, and they still stick around, lets try forcibly resetting your forum cache. CTRL-F5.

And the multi-quotes were gone this morning when I posted from a different computer, so the "cookie" thing totally makes sense.
