I think the quote upon quote fuction is actually quite insulting..... I'm more than capable of following a conversation without reminding myself of what was said every five seconds. Mad Laugh

I'm sorry! Who are you? Eeker

The gosh honest truth is that I cannot give a real or fair answer to the quote button. I really strongly disliked the quote button when it was invented 7 or 8 years ago and still don't like it in the form that eve still uses. It drives me crazy to see posts like mine here, which is 3 or more posts quoted when I really only needed to quote one sentence. The new method is a good compromise in my mind. And I really hate the multiquoted hourglass look, which we should no longer see.

So.... honestly, asking me about quote isn't going to give you a fair answer.

Thumbs Up We will get used to it then. Thumbs Up It's just that change to us lot is a bit frightening. Old, Infirm, IT virgins and Thicko's, Big Grin I am non of the above by the way, just a pioneer willing to give anything a try and to give my opinion and help where needed. Thumbs Up Any well paid jobs going??? Big Grin Have City and Guilds in Wood Machining. Big Grin

I'm not! I have very bad short term memory loss and there's no way I can follow any thread without reading the quotes AND quoting a post myself. I have lost count of the times I have opened a reply box without quoting and I have immediately forgotten the name of the poster I am wanting to respond to and have even forgotten what I am wanting to say! I don't think I am alone in having short term memory loss. Being able to quote is a vital part of a forum as far as I am concerned.

But I'm still waiting on a reply on how my password worked one minute but didn't in the other.!!
I'm highlighting my quotes and everything too! Nod



Mmmmm..... not sure about that Stupidcupid (I was going to shorten your name but it seems sooo rude Eeker )

You haven't been playing with the update account thing in the logo at the top have you? I accidently managed to change my password doing that.

Mind you... you are logged in here so you password must be working Disappointed

It doesn't look any different to me if I click on a thread. Where's the bold part? Also how can you go to the last post? I clicked on the person's name and it took me out of the forum.

I agree it's quicker and have done it at times, sometimes though I've hit the quote button without noticing how many have been a part of the quote until I see my reply posted. Eeker I much prefer shorter methods of quoting, and I'm sure the Mods do too Nod
Yellow Rose
If you click someone's name it takes you to that person's space. It's consistent that way. With this software some places clicking name goes to the profile, sometimes to a post. It is inconsistent, but you're used to it being wrong. Over there clicking a name alllllways takes you to the person, clicking a title takes you to the content.
