    No "Quote" word now. Just click on "Reply" which does it.
    But you don't have to use it to make a reply of course!

    Personally I think this is a bit confusing (compared to what we had before).

    At the botom of the thread is the "Reply" box. You can just type in there. If you want to quote someone's message then press REPLY next to their message, and the [QUOTE] tags will be placed into the reply box at the bottom of the page.

    So its not really "Reply", its "Quote" !!! but the new system calls it "Reply".

    One benefit: you can press "Reply" against several messages, and each will be inserted into the Reply box [at the point that the cursor is sitting] at the bottom of the page, so it works well if you want to Quote several posts in a single Reply.

    Terminology is a bit confusing though :(
