Copy the quoted statement several times according to requirement. If you want to reply 3 lines then copy it thrice. Get an idea from the following:

For example you are replying to above post in three different lines. Then remove the unnecessary sentence as underlined sentences are removed, which you are not going to reply.

hey look first i clicked the quote button on yur post n when i quoted your post it looked like..

started with [QUOTE=Gul Niazi....] and ended with [.../QUOTE]

now if u want to quote evry single sentence u just have to split it.. by copying n pasting intial n end brackets at start n end of each sentence tht u want to quote..

like if i want to quote yur above first line i shll use initial brackets at the start of yur quoted sentence n final brackets at end of the quoted sentence...

@Gul

Next time be careful with the titles and your tone such as "hurry up mods" ,you already have been warned here

Avoid imperative tone of voice

We have the "multi quote" button to quote multiple posts. You will find it next to the regular quote button and it should look like this:

When you click this button, it turns red, indicating that the post is selected. You can continue selecting other posts this way and once you are done selecting, you should click the Green reply button. This should do the trick
