I wanted to test a new forum feature, quick reply.

You will notice in the bottom right of each message an arrow pointing down. This is the quick reply icon. Click on it and it will take you to the bottom of the page where you can quickly respond to a particular message. (You can't enter text until a quick reply icon has been chosen.) This should be particularly effective for dial-up users since you won't have to load a whole new page to post a quick message. Smilies can be used in the quick reply box, but you will need to use the abbreviated codes. If you want to respond as usual, just click on the "reply" button and the interface will take you to a new page. (If you are not logged in, you will not see the quick reply option since you have to be registered to post.)

Try it out some and then vote in the poll above. Let us know what you think.

sorry, I don't see the difference between this and regular replying. Am I doing this right?

Yeah, you don't need to open up the other page anymore. Works really good if you are on a dial-up line. If you are on DSL, it's not much, but it's cool. Me like still.

I like it! Didn't think I would, but I do. Especially because it is so easy to quote someone still!
