Default Misspelt Advertisement

I hope I'm not being annoying, but I want to point out a misspelling in the Star and the Crescent advertisement. I point this but for the sake of professionalism and because I want independent game developers to do well. The ad currently reads, "So realistic we should probably include a helmut and flak jacket with each copy!"

I believe you mean helmet.

Hey, what's wrong with including decapitalized Germans? Throw in a grunhilde for good measure and they can start a family!

Default Using Quote option

If you want to qoute part of a post in a reply is there a way to select it rather than the whole thing.
If you wanted to quote a sentence & reply to it then quote another sentence from the same post & reply what would be the best way?
Cheers

Editing.
If you look at what it gives you there is brackets around the word quote at the beginning of the quoted text, and brackets about /quote at the end of the quoted text. Just split the quote up and add in the bracketed /quote and quote wherever needed to box in the portions you want quoted.

Of course there is also a button that looks like little text in a cartoon speaking-balloon which offers to wrap quote and /quote around whatever text you have highlighted but I never use that.
