I'm not sure if this has been suggested before or talked about, but other forums I go to have quick reply at the bottom of the screen. It saves time so you don't have to hit 'post reply' and then type.

What do you think?
(and I apologize in advance id this has been discussed before.)

That'd be great for KotF spamming. But really, the reason that isn't there is probably, correct me if I'm wrong, that we value really thinking over posts. That and we aren't a fast forum. And by that we were a extremely slow forum before y'all came around.

Actually, a quick reply just isn't an option that's built into pbpBB3, which is the forum software used for this board so I couldn't add one even if everyone wanted it. But Poik's reason sounds a lot better so let's just pretend that it's the real reason.

My signature site. Because ripping off Silver's ideas is fun.

Yeah... I like quick reply boxes too. Shame we can't have them >.< But there's pretty good reasons...
