If the board was slowed down by adding fast reply, it might make the replying with the the "fast reply" slower than regular replying now :blink:
But why would it be called fast reply if it slowed the server down :ph34r:
I've always thought the board would be better served with a "Glacial Reply" button.
Give folks a chance to think before posting.
Hot Dam.
What answers we have in here.
:lol:
I must agree with Clocker here, give ppl time to think before they post.
I bet pritnispearsforums.com has Fast Reply Buttons.
As it is so much Joy to write OMGHI2U2 and hit that Fast Reply...
...well, you can guess the rest.
:cool2:

You have trained them well Master
(you underestimate the speed at which some people can reply)
I say enable it. Only place that really gets spammed is the lounge, imo. rest of the forum probably won't be spammed.
besides, teh spammers have probably all got hi speed internet, meaning the add repy page loads just as fast as the ffast reply button opens, so really you would just be helping the 56kers and 128kers who are downloading stuff and don't like waiting for pages to load.( :P )
all i have to say is that right now we have a good derver and we should be happy for it. We have had it pretty bad at times, and in my opinion we shouldnt press our luck, I have lost count of how many diffrent severs we have been on sine the past year and a half, but i would say about three or four, and some of thoses relaionships ended pretty badly, if i recall. Would it be nice, yes it would, do we need it, no.
I don't see why fast reply shoud be a problem. The forum I write in just had it installed and it's no faster/slower than usuall but it makes it a lot easier if my bandwidth is occupied or I only want to write a short reply.
i say enable it
