Hidden Quick Reply?

[Nebulous's iconNebulous]

Do you like forums that have the quick reply hidden, you have to click a button to open it?

(above screen shot is from a phpbb3 forum)



or do you prefer it to be shown at all times?

I don't like having to click it all of the time. It gets kind of irritating.

Same here. I usually just use the actual (full) reply button on forums like that.

Having it hidden sorta defeats the purpose of quick reply as the whole point behidn quick reply is you don't have to click any buttons to post.



I prefer it be open and ready to use whenever I go into a topic.

That would aggravate me and why have it to begin with?

There is no point for a hidden quick reply.

It's still faster than a normal post... but kinda annoying nonetheless.

I like it to be visible, thats its purpose

Seems pointless to be hidden to be honest the New Post or Reply buttons should be hidden, not the QR one

It's annoying, because you have to hit reply to respond already if you're posting a regular post by the normal reply method, so by having to hit quick reply, you're essentially doing the same thing, except it may be a tad bit faster. It's just convenient to have a quick reply already visible.

I don't see the point in that to be honest

I could alter the settings on this forum so that the quick reply wont work (will be inactive) unless you activate it / hit the quick reply button in the actual posts people make.. Looks like this

Seems like a pointless setting.

I prefer it being open. Much easier to respond to the topic. And I hate when you have a click a quick-reply button before being able to respond. Just seems stupid to me.

It takes away from the quickness if it isn't shown all the time. I prefer it to be shown all the time because that's how I'm used to it.

I'm on another forum that has that. It's quite annoying, and I keep trying to type in it and wondering why I can't. Expecially after I've been on Off Topix...

It's kinda pointless as... well, what would be the difference between quick reply and advanced reply?
