If all else fails you can alway use BB code to make a quote box.

[ quote=(Persons username) ] TEXT [ /quote] or,
[ quote ] TEXT [ /quote ] to have it appear without a name. All without spaces.

^ yep. except the parentheses aren't needed.

quoting with a name

[quote=mahatma gandhi]you must be the change you wish to see in the world.[/quote]

produces this:

you must be the change you wish to see in the world.

quoting with no name

[quote]i was thinking about what a friend had said. i was hoping it was a lie.[/quote]

produces this:

i was thinking about what a friend had said. i was hoping it was a lie.
