I still struggle quoting posts from locked topics, I have no idea how to do this. I tried to organize it for a better aesthetic but I do not think there is much more I can do

You can install the BPIP extension on your browser to do this. it would be easier to quote from a locked post or thread.
after you install the extension, make sure you enable some menus. you can see the picture.

sorry OP, this seems off topic. but I'm just trying to help him.

In addition, there is a way to quote private messages without adding various extensions. I think that PrivacyG is quite skeptical about different kinds of extensions, since I kind of read that he prefers complete anonymity and privacy. Therefore, if you use the method from o_e_l_e_o, you can quote posts without installing extensions.

It's still do-able with a minor work around which will take less than 20 seconds or so.

1) Navigate to the post you want to quote and click on its title. The page will reload with that post's message number in the URL (the last 8 digits). Copy these digits, but don't close this window yet.

2) In the thread you want to post the quoted message in, click on "quote" on any post. Once that reply page loads, paste your copied 8 digits over the 8 digits in the URL after "quote=". Hit enter to reload your reply page with the locked post quoted.

3) Go back to the window from step 1 containing the message you want to quote. Copy the 7 digits after "topic=". Go back to the window from step 2 containing your new reply, and paste these 7 digits over the 7 digits after "link=topic=" on the top line of your reply. This is to ensure the quote links back to the correct thread if someone clicks on it.

sorry OP
