OK here's another one - and I actually tried to figure this one out myself before posting! 
When you reply to a post by quoting it, how do you type your message under the quote? I've seen others do it that way, but my quote attempt had me writing on top of the quote box.....

In the advanced editor your cursor will sit at the end of the bottom quote line, just hit return and start typing.

That FAQ would be much more user-friendly if the topics at the top of the page actually linked to the relevant answer below.
Also - is it possible to code something into the board that makes it so that quotes include the quoted posters name? On a very long thread, quoting will be almost irrelevant since a third party will have no clue as to whom a quoter is quoting.

I figured it's going to change over the next few weeks until things settle in, and it's a tadge finicky to edit. So, I'll not add links until it's in a more final form.
Use those buttons on your computer to scroll, man!  
Will make a note of the quotes thingie and look into it when we're a little less harried.
Thanks for the Feedback.

Actually, you can determine that by clicking on the link: [In reply to] next to the subject head of any post.

Ehhh on a long thread, when you have a quote of a quote of a quote of a quote, it's always nice to be able to see at a glance the progression of the discussion.
