Missing forum functionality...

I am new here, so maybe I'm just missing something...

But there seems to be no mutli-quote, or partial quoting capabilities.
I've only been here 35 seconds and I miss those things tremendously!

Okay, I've been here a bit longer than that.
But my life has become nearly unmanageable without those features.

Can I be saved?
Is there any hope for me?

I highlighted "Yes you can!" in your post above.
Then I dragged it around the block for awhile but never got a "Quote ME!" thingy.

As I was dragging it all I got was the highlighted text following me around with a "circle/slash" over it...

I tried it in both Google Chrome and Internet Explorer.
And now I has a sad.

I would too!! I'm using Chrome. Are you highlighting the text, then letting go of the mouse key? That's when I see "quote me". I don't drag the post to replies. I hope that sounded right.

Thanks that is something I was missing too.

Since were whining a little, I wish there was a way for us to be able to close a classified thread, when its closed.
Its no big deal, just seem like the person that moderates the forum would appreciate not having to keep track. :)

If you need one closed, you can edit the title to Please Close, or tag a moderator in the thread to do so. Those are really the only options, but we're glad to help you out.

Well, I guess maybe I'm one of the unlucky ones.
That didn't work either, in Chrome or Internet Explorer.

It's not the first time I've been unlucky though.
:)

On the Other Forum if you hover over a thread title you get a pop-up window with a brief intro to the first post.
I never got that pop-up and was so jealous of everyone else!

Well, I got it if I used Internet Explorer, but not if I was using Google Chrome.
And since I refuse to use Internet Explorer, well, I had a sad.

Then one day I started getting the pop-up in Chrome, and it was everything I ever imagined it would be.
It was damn near almost like Christmas!

Then it stopped working one day, and hasn't worked since.
So yeah, I'm used to disappointment.
:xD:

We have the preview feature, too. I don't know what it could be. is Chrome up to date? I do sometimes get a delay with the "quote me" feature.

Do you have a 'mis' quote function?

Okay, so chalk me up for being unlucky once again.
I got no preview feature here either.

Chrome is ALWAYS up to date, whether I want it to be or not.
It is quite assertive for a search engine.

I don't understand what might be happening :(
I wonder if you're getting the delay that I've seen a couple times? After I highlight, "quote me" sometimes doesn't pop up right away, or I have to do it more than once.

I do recall someone else having no preview at one time, but it corrected itself at some point. I wish I knew what else to suggest. We do really like you, though!

Chrome is actually not always up to date. If you click Settings > Help > About Google Chrome it will check for updates manually :)

Well, that worked, and I just updated Google Chrome manually.
And then I "relaunched" to make Google Chrome happy.

But I still got no auto preview, no "Quote Me!" and no beer.

Pouring cold water on your CPU usually fixes the problem, just make sure to take off any and all protection and then pour in a nice glistening stream ;)
