@8888    Thank you for reaching out with support helping me to fee welcome to the site and reiterating what happened to me wasn't my fault. 

Question:  how do i copy someones post on my reply? Make sense?

Do you mean quote someone's post like I just did here?  To do that click the "Quote" button under the post.  There is a plus sign just to the left of it.  Did that answer your question?
