WilliamIV Posted May 13, 2005 Share Posted May 13, 2005 Moderators I suggest the the Default of +Quote / -Quote be changed to -Quote. I guess many times members just click on reply when they don't need any quote - but get it by default Bill Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess many times members just click on reply when they don't need any quote - but get it by default Bill <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I think what you mean is to make the "Reply" button work as the "AddReply" button works now (i.e. with no quoted text), and to have a new button (maybe called "ReplyWithQuote") that works the same way as the "Reply" button does now. This new button could be added to the row of buttons below each post. Good idea Bill4! Keep 'em coming. (Can't promise anything). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
george Posted May 13, 2005 Share Posted May 13, 2005 Good idea! I will look into this when we upgrade the forum software next time. Not sure exact date though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
