It'd be a lot of work. You're talking about changing core functions in the script ;)

Yeah, it probably is. :/

Another thing that made me curious. How do you quote quotes? I tried:

While I was hoping to get this:

When you see nested quotes it's because some folks who post to Usenet are lazy. Rather than cleaning up the quoted text they just hit the 'reply' button and each post that quotes another adds another level of nesting to the mess.

It's one of the pitfalls of Usenet - but I see it on vB forums where people can't be bothered to clean up after themselves and only quote relevant text.

I'm not sure how you'd set the script to ignore nested quotes. I wish I was a programmer, but all I am is a geek :(

I don't want it to ignore nested quotes, I'd rather have it quote the quote (quote twice) like the example I mentioned since that would come useful but now it behaves very odd to these nested quotes.

I guess you could try hacking the routine yourself - as long as you're not working on the only copy of gateway.php you have you should be reasonably safe :D

So no one knows about the changed subject threading bug?

If you disable the edit ability for users in this forum I don't think it can occur, can it?

No, but people can change the subject line using a news reader; the thread in the newsreaders maintains continuity, but the post with the altered subject creates a new thread.

/me wonders when this will be officially available for vB3 Gold

Any idea why my USENT messages wouldn't be returned very frequently from searches? It seems like only threads that I post on via my forum return in the search window.
