Dunkield Posted March 17, 2008 Report Share Posted March 17, 2008 OK, so this may sound obvious to most people, but without naming and shaming there are few members (mainly newbs in all fairness) who hit the wrong button when replying to posts. Can you just check you have hit the or button and not the button If you hit the latter it sends a PM to the moderating team but does not reply to the post.

harv Posted March 17, 2008 Report Share Posted March 17, 2008 Can you just check you have hit the 'Reply' or 'Quick reply' button and not the 'Report this post' button do you mean add reply or fast reply button? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cranfield Posted March 17, 2008 Report Share Posted March 17, 2008 Can you just check you have hit the 'Reply' or 'Quick reply' button and not the 'Report this post' button do you mean add reply or fast reply button? Either "Reply" buttons, which are on the right hand side. The "Report" button is on the left hand side. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hunter Posted March 17, 2008 Report Share Posted March 17, 2008 While on this topic, can I ask two qeustions: Why does the Add Reply function not include the same smileys as in Fast Reply.. (or am I being blonde and not seeing them?) Also, why dont all forum subsections apart from General Banter include the Fast Reply option? Cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheers The Add Reply function does include all the same smilies as in Fast Reply, just click on the smilie and get the same drop down menu. There is a Fast reply facility on General Banter.

njc110381 Posted March 17, 2008 Report Share Posted March 17, 2008 I can't tell you how badly did I wanted to press the report button just to wind you up! After giving it some thought I decided that a post with 3 mods on may be a bad one to pick on so I'm going to behave. After all I have no reason to wind up Cranfield Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul223 Posted March 17, 2008 Report Share Posted March 17, 2008 My guess is people are hitting the report instead of the back to top button, they are sooooo close Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dunkield Posted March 17, 2008 Author Report Share Posted March 17, 2008 My guess is people are hitting the report instead of the back to top button, they are sooooo close Normally there is a reply in the message so they can't get off that easily Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mr lee Posted March 17, 2008 Report Share Posted March 17, 2008 Our clubs enduro forum has this problem. We normally find it is newbies with a zero post count who try to make a reply/thread and find they can't because they haven't yet clicked on the validation Email that they need to click to fully activate their account.

njc110381 Posted March 17, 2008 Report Share Posted March 17, 2008 I can't tell you how badly did I wanted to press the report button just to wind you up! .........go ahead punk make my week Now I'm really struggling to hold myself back. I'm having one of those days and I'm itching to take you up on it! Is it not against the rules for a moderator to encourage me to use the forum irresponsibly? I think I'll leave it in case I get in trouble. If I could just get the report to send to you and Stuartp I probably would, but I don't want to waste the time of the other mods Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
