I was on overgrow.com earlier today because a friend of mine informed me that people there thought the shroomery website was down because it was raided by the DEA. I went on to point out that they were full of shit, but anyways, onto my point.
On their messageboard set up, they have this "imediate reply" option, where at the bottom of each thread someone reads, there sits an open chat box that you can just type into and submit as a reply. I found it quite convenient, instead of having to load up a completely new page in order to post a reply.
I have no idea how hard it is to modify/code these sort of things, but this is just a suggestion...

See, this way it is now, the "whole new page" is loaded only when you want to replay to someones post.
If we would do the other way, the content of the "whole new page" would be loaded every time you read a post.

You sure are whoring it up tonight in the Feedback forum, LiquidSmoke 
BTW, the option you're speaking of is built into the board software OG uses.. it's a lot more work for our tech admins to work in a feature like that I'd imagine, since they'd be implementing it from scratch. Not to mention the extra resources it would use as Anno was talking about.

Would there be any possibility to just have the reply window added onto the thread page itself?
Whatevers, you probably know what you're talking about. I'mna shut up now.

Probably.
But 3D is the one who can modify code, so you should ask him.

Well matts, it's you or 3D who'll take care of it - if you feel comfortable implementing such a feature, give it a shot and let's see how it plays out.

Great idea on the quick reply. One small confusion that occurs because of the quick reply is that the readers do not know who the post is actually addressed to. I suggest putting some sort of tag or graphic showing that the post which they are reading is a quick reply. Nothing fancy but could the post function have a line added where it would add some text to the post like "---quick reply---" at the top of the reply or some shit like that? Just something to chew on. Peace

I think the reason why they don't put more of the options/features from the regular reply to the rapid reply is because then it would just eliminate the reply option entirely.
It kinda diversifies your options.
