So I was incredibly bored the other day and I decided to read the New Users Guide. I think it is time for a guide overhaul. I think it is too technical and not glamourous looking enough that no one would actually read it...and that kind of defeats the purpose of it. Frown

I think a cool looking New Users Guide that we could actually attract new users to would be a great thing for the boards.

What do you all think?

The quick reply is faster because it doesn't have to load like the other one...

I always use it unless I need any of the special features, in which case I click on the "use full posting form" link (conveniently located at the bottom of the quick reply window...).

All I have ever used it the quick reply. The only time I don't use it is if I am posting a link or a smiley that I don't know the keys to.

I also love the quick reply. It's so easy to quote, because all you have to do is highlight the text you want to quote, and click the quick reply. It's so convienient.

I don't use the quick reply. It doesn't like me much.

I agree. I don't know what we did without it...

I'm not 100% sure that there actually WAS a new users guide when I first joined...

There certainly is some new stuff in there that wasn't around when I joined (like the quick reply)...

Hmm...interesting.
