I've just been on a different UBB forum, and I noticed that when you post a reply you get all the previous postings down the page.
I think that would be useful, as I'm always going 'back' or using 'reply w/quote' and forgetting to remove the quote.
The forums are on www.allegro.cc
Unfortunately, they don't have [CODE] tags, which is pretty weak (especially as I only realised this after using them for a few weeks).

When you post a reply ... scroll down the page where you are writing your reply. If you use IE you see a little window which you can scroll through and see the thread you are replying to .. in Netscape the whole thread is displayed on the bottom of the page!


Pounding at a thick stone wall won't move it, sometimes, you need to step back to see the way around.
