Default Get rid of the QUOTE button

I have noticed that most people are SO lazy they tend to hit the "QUOTE" button when they have nothing to quote and so this fills the forums up with ever increasingly long postings, and then everyone else follows suit.

The only button available ought to be the REPLY.

I think the quote button should be removed and if they have something to actually quote, they can highlight with the mouse, and use Ctl C - then Ctl V.

This stops lazy people being too slack... you know like they can't turn the TV off because the remote has flat batteries so they sit there all night watching it.

Have you tried turning the machine on before you switch it off.

Stevo is an unknown quantity at this point

Haha agreed. I just saw this. Interesting presentation. I came back to the site after a long leave, and I found myself not remembering which button to click to get quick reply working. Took me a minute.

Is that locked into the theme Overclocked?
