Help, please

Under the quick reply box are options for Post Quick reply or Go Advanced or Cancel. Click the Go advanced and it should birng up the reply box you are used too. It threw me off for a bit too.

Thanks, I finally figured that out. But it wasn't like that right after the switch was made - was it? Seems like I've posted in the past week without going through all that stuff. Whatever.

Thanks again, MOFF.

No it wasn't like that originally. It just happened today. Annoying...

Found the answer to why this happened here:

Yes, as mentioned, we just turned this feature on. There's not much difference between Quick Reply and a normal Reply, other than you cannot put a title on a post, and you get a bigger box to type in and all the clickable emoticons handy if you hit "Go Advanced."

If people don't like "Quick Reply, we can turn it back off, we figured we'd give it a try for a few days, and see what folks thought.

I am such a creature of habit. Some days I fear I am turning into my crabby old father.
Let's see what everyone thinks.

Karen you are awesome for putting up with us!

I replied in another thread about this last night because this is when it started happening to me. I'm glad to hear that I wasn't the only one. I prefer to just have it the old way so I'm going to try to change mine back. I guess I can't. I just don't like having to also click on go advanced to that I can use the emoticons.

I agree with Tracey. This "new" way is inconvenient and confusing.

In the future, if there are other changes like this, is it possible for you to put a Sticky at the top of the board so we all know what's going on. This has been very disconcerting, especially for those of us who are more "mature"

I've been "on the fence" regarding the change. The quick reply - go advanced doesn't bother me. Every time I hit quick reply with gmail I get the advanced, so I'm used to it.
