      Replies in threads get confusing without quoting the original post.

      Yep, exactly like when folks have their email set to NOT include previous text…or…

      A quote option would rock, I hope it's coming soon.

      Until then, I've found it helpful in other forums w/out it to just get old fashioned and reference the person I'm addressing: "Shiggy, you're right. We need a quote option"

        "Replies in threads get confusing without quoting the original post."

        …or you can just cut and paste the sentence or paragraph (or entire post) that you are specifically replying to, and make it italic or put quotes around it like I did above…

          Which is a PITA when every other forum software I have used has the quote option that also includes the name of the original poster. The stated goal of this forum is ease of use.

          I do see that the format creates a threaded mode look. Sort of kind of links the reply to a previous post.

          But the reply numbering is not chronological. This and the reply above were posted after the "test" reply.

          Need to click on the "reply" button on the bottom right of the post, not the "post reply" button, bottom left. A bit confusing.

          Note that Kim's reply is nested/threaded as a reply to Brock's message, not my original post.

          It was in reply to me, using your text as a quote/example.

          It'll take a small bit of time, but folks will get used to it and the tech folks will get things ironed out quickly.

          I know you're savy and adaptable…and ornery. All of which I love!
