I don't know if this has been mentioned before or not. But wouldn't it be nice if the quote feature had the name of the person being quoted along with the quote itself? <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

Just a thought. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />


I could have been very happy not knowing that. "Game over, man! Game over!"

I know. I noticed in that big political debate in the chat area that they are doing lots of quotes but I don't know who said what originally. That is what made me think of that. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggrin.gif" alt="" />

another feature that would be good is if the original message was included when you reply to pms.

i, myself, have a bad memory and i can't remember everything i said. i tend to copy and past and email it to myself so i can refresh my memory.

i'm sure i'm not the only one with a bad memory points to luna :P

I don't think this type of message board supports it. Perhaps I am wrong though.



Aurora Look up, look way up...

I don't think the original message should be included when you reply. For that purpose you can use quote. Otherwise it is very hard to read the replys and they would get very big and long.

*hint* Btw, when you press reply and scroll down a bit you can see the message you are replying to. *hint*

But quote should definately have a reference to the original poster.

(How do you spell >definately< ? <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/winkwink.gif" alt="" />)

i think you missed what i was talking about.

let's say i send you a pm and you reply to it. i won't see what i oringally said to you, so i may not remember.

it's nice to have that reminder and if it starts to get too big you can always delete some of the older parts of it.

Hi all,

I've read all of your requests, but I'm not sure if I can do sth about it. Let's see if the forum software allows it.
Currently I'm very busy, but I'll look for it tomorrow.

I'm back already with a solution for this one <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/silly.gif" alt="" />

When you create a PM, you can choose the option to preview your message. Just above this option you have two other options:

- I want to keep a copy of my message
- I want to receive a read receipt

There you go <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/winkwink.gif" alt="" />

He he, yes... now that I read it again <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/winkwink.gif" alt="" /> Probably I should go to bed *yawn*
