New Function: Quote a post in a PM

[ScubaDocER]

Still not working for me guys. I have tried logging off, other forums, etc. Just cannot get that option to show up on my screen.

Do you know how to make a screen shot? How to make screenhot? Taking screenshots is fast and free. No software to download

Please click on someone's name, and then take a screen shot, and post it here; so I can see what you're seeing.

Thanks.

Interesting add-on. Could be useful. But the "Quote this post in a PM" feature posts to the person who drafted the post. If you want to send the post to someone else you have to delete the name of the original poster and enter the names of the people you want to pm the post to.

Not a big deal but if someone wants to discuss that post with another person and inadvertently does not delete the original posters name from the PM, an accidental pm could be sent.

Depending on the context of the pm, this could be bad.

I thought about that as well. The first thing I do when forwarding an email etc, is to wipe out the recipient names. That way I can't send it to the wrong person or accidentally send it before I'm finished writing it.

I would do the same thing as well but there are a lot of people that are not that ... observant. Someone would make the mistake and cause WWIII around here. if it were to happen, the drama would be fun to watch though.

Kind of like watching a tank explode.

We're going to have to make up a term like Godwins Law for "I wanna see a tank explode."

You got that right CD. I always see it referenced when things get a bit hairy. Since you mentioned it, why not post a poll for coming up with the new name. :shocked2:

Howard,

I made a copy of the picture on my screen but it says it is too large to send as an attached thumbnail. Suggestions?

It's not working for me either.

Vista, doesn't work with IE8 or Chrome 3.0.195, Scubaboard Default style.

I've got 5 choices:
View Public
Send Private
Find More Posts
Add to Buddy
Add to Ignore

followed by the Mod Tools

I also don't have the Visit Homepage option but I'm pretty sure I never have.

Thank goodness I'm not the only one. Thought I was going crazy

Those are the same 5 choices I see.
