The additional Quick Reply option..
being displayed not only in the Profile,
is requested.
Use Quick Reply box inside the POST display:
"show within each post display, off by default,
and with the provided global quote of the post
inside the box".
It seems reasonable to select two independent options
"Use quick reply box in POST display:" OR
"Use quick reply box on TOPIC display:"
according to "OR" logic.
Isn't it obvious that the switching one to another
should be accessed not through a long way to Profile
but QUICKLY from the "Additional options" box
which is also independent from the reply boxes ?
The quote (with the global link in the header of the quote)
should be accessed in off-line.
"Quick Reply in Posts display" box
should have a checkbox
"_Ready_ for posting the reply".
When the "Quick Reply in Posts display" option
is switched to "ON" -
the original common "Reply" button is nothing to do
and the common button "Post checkboxed ReplieS"
instead of "Reply" button..
will post n sequential quick replies
during a one next connection session.
The button which is named as "Reply" today
should tomorrow be renamed to..
~Just go to prepare a slow reply~.
Another topics will appear all over the planet
on adding global post links
to the quick reply quote header
for posting quick replies to Free Speech forums..
with just the outgoing hotlinks
placed at the moderated zooes.

Global Quote is implemented in the example

[/quote]
I have tried reading that and attempted to understand it - but its making my brain bleed.
Perhaps you could reword it so us common folk can understand it ;D

Tony,
I have added an example link
http://agreetogri.newmail.ru/example-quick-replies-in-posts-display.htm .
Your quote in this post is also global.
Try to place the code of this post at any other
SMF 1.1 forum.
The link from the remote quote header should work..
until your original post is removed.
The related removed topic - "Global Quoting"
http://agreetogri.newmail.ru/gl-quote.htm .
Still bleed ?
Do you distingwish the difference between
"removed" and "remoted" ?
Do you see the problem ?

Egads... Honestly, Gri, I *HATE* that idea. It's cluttered and unnecesarry.
If you want to quote a message, click on the "quote" button... If you want to quote from a bunch of messsages, go to regualt replay and choose the insert quote links...
I would fight against having this as a "feature"... but if you want to release it as a mod, feel free. That's why SMF has the whole mod section.

Kind red,
i respect your Honesty and Hat red.
"Feature" is the ability for a USER
to set any convenience ON or OFF.
If any convenience is included as a feature
and is both allowed by a default
and not disallowed by an administrator,
then the USER
instead of fighting
for excluding of the feature
from the package
can easily discover
which checkbox to click on his screen
to not ever observe that feature.
In other opposite case
when a virtual mod is naturally unknown
both to administrator
and to a USER,
a USER fully depends from an administrator's will
and an administrator's current skill
and from the God
who will define for a USER
how many years long
a USER should continue fighting
at the simplemachines.org features request board
for including a set of features
from which maybe the USER's life depends..
or depended
plus how many years
a USER should voyage from forum to forum
keeping the melting hope
to meet occasionally a forum
with simultaneousely installed
at least a dozen of necessary mods
which can allow a USER
only to begin to spea
Sure, a USER will not have time to say his last
Because of hatred of a next administrator to the True words
(for example).

1. If you want to quote a message traditionally
you would just select that mode of replying
in your User Profile.
2. If you selected (as a default)
the "multi-quick reply box" plus "off by default"
then while reading a topic it looks like with
"quick reply box" plus "off by default".
If you then do not click the "quote" button
then there is nothing at all at the screen
what you could fight against.
But if you want to Reply QUICKLY
(it often means without quote
or with the single quote)
then what will be bad if the reply box will expose
closely under the same post
you have decided to reply to ?
Gri... why did you reply to my one post in multiple posts... that makes it difficult to read (even aside from your very wierd writing style)
Cluttered is when I have to search to separate the actual messages from the reply boxes. YUCK!
As I said, one of the glories of this sort of system is the ability to make and install mods for what you want.
FEATURES like this end up causing code creep, clutter and bloat.
They are not needed (and not wanted) in most cases.
Besides, on every forum I have been on, the rule of thumb is "REPLY IN A SINGLE MESSAGE" COmbine all your responses to thos ebefor eyou into a single post... do not clutter up the message boards with individual responses to each post... That is how MSN does things, and is one of the major reasons that my community has moved OFF of MSN.

Kindred,
I am free to distinguish separating branches of thoughts
in each letter of your posts
and in each combination of the letters..
of your posts with sombody else posts.
These thoughts are free enough to allow them
to live their own life
and to meet or not to meet other separate thoughts
or their combinations.
Why should I necessarily push free thoughts
in a one container ?
I should not.
Only these thoughts may ask me to place them together.
And on this way we must really think
how to help thoughts
not to be torn and forcely cutted from its beginning
to continuation.
There is the link in each quote header
which can help the program
to determine the history and the direction
of each microdialogue
and the program could display the selected microdialogues
independently from the actual place of replies arrangement
i.e. in its logical structure which is created
by the participants of the dialogues
regardless of whether the logical sequence of posts
coincide with the chronological sequence
or not.
More over in the sequence
with only one possible dimensionality
(i.e. simplier than plain)
as it is now in SMF -
the logical sequence will almost always hide itself
among simultaneous posts and replies
of ~nearby~ microdialogues.
In order to speak about the same things
we must use the same terms -
the words filled with the figurativeness.
I have in my mind a definite vector
of the link in the quote.
I have named it "grivitonik".
It is a vector of grivitation force
applied to the thought of a
replier sorry, a reader and future replier.
When you read and feel suddenly the desire to reply,
i.e. to comment any separate set of text lines -
sometimes it is the resistless wish to Reply Quickly..
know, just you live not only in gravitation space
but are surrounded by the ambiguous
grivitation field.
Conditionally the grivitonik vector shows the direction
/ <- from the original words
\ -> to further discussion.
So SMF program should agree with the reality
of grivitation nature
of human communications
to satisfy the natural requests of Human Beings
to mirror
reality by virtual means and possibilities
of the software.
The incoming grivitonik of the quote (grivitINik)
can inform the readers of any reply
where the thoughts having produced the reply
have had originated from,
moving backward to vector arrow.
But still now there is no any info for the future readers
of the original post
which (the thought in an original post) have generated
the effective thoughts of next reader-replier
for his resulted reply.
These are outgoing grivitoniks (grivitOUTiks)
which the SMF program should include
or allow to include
in the special grivitonic section of a post
to move along the vector arrow.
I suppose that it would be correct
to arrange the outgoing grivitout section
not under the Signature zone
as it can seem reasonable first
but at the left of the post
under the original_post_Author_avatar_zone
(each of which - both avatar+profile info
and grivitout section
could be selected to display or not..
It would be the best if the grivitoutiks
would be displayed to the left of the original post
oppositely that same fragment of quote
which was implemented in
Quick Reply Block Quoting The program surely can do it.
<- Here. Two inches to the left and two lines down !
<< [to Kindred] ~from Gri~ (grivitoutik)
Quote from: ~just the colored box for a separate thought
which could be quoted out there~
The signature section
can be now set to "Don't show other users' signatures"
but it should be capable to be set to
"Show users' signatures, on by default, off-line by default",
and similarly -
"Show users' avatar+profile info, on by default, off-line by default" ,
"Show users' grivitoutiks, on by default, off-line by default"
to switch them ON and OFF in OFF-line
similar to "Show/Hide" of the Ignore User Mod.. ignore post.
Kindred,
I do not think that (most of) the readers
which will come to the original topic
~while moving for life~
against the direction
of the distributed grivitiniks
included in the multiple global quotes out there..
will be glad to search and search
the point of original separate thought
in the long posts with the salad of thoughts.
So when I can.. I divide them
deviating
to the branches.
There are a lot of communities on the planet
which can not use SMF
because of the only reason -
the absence of the tree-like structure of the posts-replies.
<< [to imcool] ~from Gri~ << (http://www.simplemachines.org/community/index.php?topic=49200.msg349652#msg349652) (grivitoutik)
It is their manner of thinking and posting.
When such people attempt to post to the plain structure
the pretext for moderation arises from a part of plain moderators.
I am against global moderation.
