quote:What does it do better than the basic quote button?
ANSWER: Quoting BADWEB makes one appears wise, worldly and informed. It conveys, even to the unknowing layman, an aura of confidence, knowledge and one's keen sense of the world around us. Next question . . . . |

I do think the quote function here is better. I hate the quote function on other forums. Here, as I read, I highlight the specific quote I want to respond too, and right click "copy" to send it to the clipboard. There it sits in the buffer. I continue to navigate, type my response, and type 8 extra keystrokes, right click and hit paste, and I'm done. It's really easy and precise. The other forum software encourages over quoting, which is worse than not quoting at all. The previous post is right up there to read, if you were just going to cut and paste the whole thing, don't cut and paste it. I hate forever scrolling to see the same great big block of text posted over and over and over. |

We have 25mph for a euro-bird. Is there a difference for the afr.... (that could put the thread off topic for sure. What is the air-speed velocity of an unladen african swallow? Has any other forum helped to improve your posting skills as much as BadWeb?

The time spent arguing about which forum has a better quote function could be used to simply cut & paste the actual quotes and be done with it. Wait a minute, suppose two swallows carried it together? |

"Wait a minute, suppose two swallows carried it together?" No. They'd have to have it on a line. |

I haven't been regular here for a long time. I still have all of my Buells and would like a few more. I still feel like this place is family. I donate to a podcast through a site called "Patreon" and would certainly do the same for this home away from home to keep it going. I never thought that it might go away some day. If it helps any of you nerds feel better about yourselves or the site... I don't know how to quote or any of that other fancy stuff. Shucks, I just got a smart phone that I'll never figure out how to use a month or so ago. Maybe I'll try to get Froggy to give me a tutorial at The Dino next week. |

Hey Crusty, how you doing ? Are you going to the Dino ? The one time I met you was there and I'm really going to try to make it this time. |

I am planning to be there. However, the past two years, I was planning to be there, and I got really sick and couldn't make it. This will be my third attempt at the Stamford Dinosaur. |
