Place "REPLY" at the top of each thread.
« on: September 28, 2008, 03:53:37 AM »
BY PLACING "REPLY" AT THE TOP OF EACH THREAD, TO THE LEFT OF "REPLY WITH QUOTE", WOULD BE MUCH MORE OBSERVENT WHEN YOU JUST WANT TO REPLY AND NOT CLICK  "WITH QUOTE" WHICH MANY OF US CLICK ON WHEN WE ARE RUSHING OUR REPLY BECAUSE IT IS RIGHT THERE IN FRONT OF US, LIKE I JUST DID A WHILE AGO. JUST A SUGGESTION. EAM

EAM - Thanks for your post.  I suggested this previously and was in hopes that this could be changed.  I agree that the location of "reply with quote" leads a person to  hit that link, instead of looking above for the "reply" link.  Changes to web sites are not easy, but this one definitely needs fixed.  I don't know how this was ever put in that location in the first place.

"Reply" is at the top of each thread now.  It is also at the bottom of each thread. 

I think what EAM is suggesting is that "reply" should also appear as the first option at the top of each
message.  I'd vote for that.

I also like the idea of putting Reply at the top of each post.

CORRECTION:  I SHOULD HAVE USED THE WORDS MESSAGE OR POST INSTEAD OF "THREAD". SORRY ABOUT THAT!  EAM

HAS ANY CONSIDERATION BEEN GIVEN TO THIS SUGGESTION BY THE FORUM ADMINISTRATOR AS YET? IT SEEMS TO BE QUITE PRACTICABLE AND USEFUL!  EAM

Hi Ev,

It is something we plan to do.  I just can't give you an exact time for the implementation yet.

Best,
Jeff

How do we modify one of our postings? There use to be a link we could click on that was located on top of the posting but it has vanished. What happened? EAM
