Yes! Click on Reply in the message you'd like to quote (give the page time to load), and then click Quote above the upper right hand corner of the box. Type under the quoted section. Of course, if you're on a different system/browser/device than I am, it might not look the same to you as it does to me. I hope it works for you - I look forward to you quoting my post, lol.

 

It's a great thread, with an open title that gives everyone a chance to voice an opinion in either direction, so it's the most user friendly thing here currently. Heart

 

For those who don't care for the Smileys, there are some other options available under Preferences, I think.

Re: How do you like the new Forums?

I really do not like that you cannot read much of a topic heading at all now in the topics listings for each forum. That is the way it is on my iPad at any rate. I also do not like that I cannot just scroll to the bottom of a listing of posts for a topic and reply to the original post. That seems disorganized to me. There are other dislikes that I have, but those are the two that stand out at the moment.

Do not like it. Change is tough, but this arrangement is too messy and confusing.

If your page is loading like mine, scroll down the left side to the Quick Links section, click on Edit My Preferences, then click on Privacy. The default setting should be protecting you, as the private information and email address default is "no one". Show online status is set to all, but can be adjusted there as well. Be sure to click SAVE.

 

If you have trouble, please post here again, and we can try again.
