Topic: Quick post or Post Reply?
Which do you use more often? The "Quick Post" box or the "Post Reply" button?
A 3rd party candidate is the "Quote" link

This really should be in Fans (This section is for general BOBA stuff)
The one that's probably the most used is the Quick Reply. Quote shouldn't even be counted, that's usually only used if you're quoting someone.

Re: Quick post or Post Reply?
Quick reply is much easier. I was thrilled when my personal message board was upgraded with the feature. And now when I go somewhere where there's no quick reply, I feel a little sad because it's so useful. 
Particularly if a website takes a while to load... Then it seems to be tedious to try and post many places without a quick reply.

Re: Quick post or Post Reply?
I think I've only used Quick Reply two or three times.
take it easy baby take it as it comes
Re: Quick post or Post Reply?
I love Quick Reply. I never use regular reply. It's just so much faster and easier to simply type at the bottom of your screen. Also it's easier to see what someone said, or who said something, without either hitting the back button or bringing up a new window.

Re: Quick post or Post Reply?
When you use the Post Reply button, you can see the previous posts at the bottom of the page.

Re: Quick post or Post Reply?
Yeah, but it's still easier to tell who said what when it's not backwards. lol

I am all for simplicity. "In simplicity there is both clarity and strengh" So the long way of saying... quick reply, almost exclusively.

Re: Quick post or Post Reply?
Above the Quick Reply space, there should be a black space. In there is a red "Post Reply" button.

Hehe I always type out in Word before copying and pasting into quick post. I use word as it is a good way of checking spelling and punctuation

The internet browser Firefox has a built in spell check, so if i want to type a tricky word like monotonous, it tells me exactly how to spell it! Off topic but worthwhile information.

And speaking of punctuation, I believe you forgot a period at the end of the word.

Eek…oops. Well it works most of the time what is a period though? (I am sorry the English that I was taught at school was not good so most of what I know now has been self taught)
I prefer using word as if there is a problem and my computer dies (or our electric meter runs out of electric) then at least I can recover what I have typed.

A period is a full stop.

Re: Quick post or Post Reply?
Devil Girl and others, try using the Firefox browser. One of many benefits is that spell checking is built in, when you type into form fields like this (message box at bottom of page, above submit button).

Re: Quick post or Post Reply?
I use Firefox. It's really good! Much better than Virus-Catcher aka Internet Explorer.
