To quote across chat rooms, just click the quote beside the message you want to quote, select another room from the roster, and type your message. You should see the room name change in the quote pop-up.
Some things to keep in mind when you quote someone:
- Your message is deleted when you switch rooms, so switch rooms before typing.
- The person you quoted is @mentioned in the room you post the quote. @mentioning a person invites them to the chat room, even if the room is private or a personal group. (Quoting someone in a direct message room does not invite them to the direct message, one-on-one conversation.)
