    Are you sure about that? The quick reply box has been hidden until you clicked on Reply or Reply With Quote for years. Where exactly have you been seeing it?

    Bottom of the thread. It was there for a while and now it's gone.


    Reinvent the British and you get a global finance center, edible food and better service. Reinvent the French and you may just get more Germans.

    How recently did it disappear? It was my recollection that we moved to the in-thread version years ago.

    That was my impression too

    @Vladimir and @classical_hero , do you see the Quick Reply box appearing after you click Reply to Thread or Reply With Quote or is still not there then?

    It used to be there without clicking anything for a while but now it only appears when you click "Reply to thread".

    I noticed it but then forgot about it again.

    There is a setting that I believe would put the reply box down there without requiring a button to be clicked first, however doing so prevents the forum from knowing which post is being replied to, which makes the threaded and hybrid display modes hard to read. AFAIK, no one has ever changed that setting since Tosa passed away, which means it has been in its current state for at least 16 months, almost certainly longer. If you have reason to believe that the static quick reply box has been visible more recently than that, please do say so.

    It was just hanging out at the bottom of the thread. Don't see it now but certainly saw it less than 16 months ago. It's no biggie. Just an observation.

    You still remember exactly how this forum looked like 16 months ago?

    I guess you're the living evidence that alcohol is good for your memory.

    Well I know it was there recently but I don't know exactly when the change was made. Sometimes in a thread you just need to make a post without replying to anyone. Since it was there at one point I am just wondering if it ill be back there or not.

    You can access the non-post-specific reply box by clicking the + Reply to Thread button, which is located at both the very top and bottom of every thread, on the left side.
