This morning as I started reading the forums, I wondered who this "wrote" was. Was it a very new and prolific poster?

 

No. It seems to be a change in how the quotes appear. Instead of seeing my or any nic as being quoted, I see "wrote."

 

Please confirm so that I know I'm not crazy. :-)

I've seen it a few times today while viewing the forums.

@suzyQ3.  There's a thread under Customer Care titled quote a post with a green arrow. Seems someone said it was fixed, but I see it's not.

@suzyQ3   I mentioned it yesterday on the This Is Us thread. So you may be crazy but we can't use this as proof.

Re: Format Change?

[ Edited ]

Maybe they are doing that because I think you can change someone's quote in your post

I think it might be a better idea

@lovescats.  The Mods are aware and trying to get it fixed.

I think there are reasons to leave it that way because some people just quote posters to correct them or argue with them.

Some people might not want to be quoted by certain posters.

I'm in favor of not going back to the old way.
