You're the best Zoomie. Seriously.Ah, shucks.Since we're on the subject, it would be nice if you could see previous edits to a post. I've seen several occasions where the OP changed their post to avoid being called out on something they said, or to pretend they never said something. I tend to write edit: before I put in NEW content, but I've also corrected posts for clarity or spelling with only the little "edited" tag in the top right.cybereality said:I'll look into it. Appreciate it.

Mostly all the popular forum software I've seen allows quotes to be edited. Usually this is done so you can trim what someone said to one line to respond to, but I guess you can also type whatever your want. I'm not sure this is really a problem that should be fixed, but it is something to be aware of if you read a suspect quote.

I like where this thread is going

They once had a dislike it was removed, member abuse i believe

I think a dislike only option is a bad idea but like+dislike I think could work.I mean.. depending on the context you use it in, the 'LOL' button can either be "laughing with" or "laughing at".And the latter is basically a combination of liking + disliking someone. You don't think there's any value to what they said, but it amuses you that they would say it. Lol.

There might be a small problem with the way this forum handles quotes.
