Glenn/ Mods forum question.

Would it be possible to get a feature back that was here before the update.

When you reply to a message, it used to show the original message beneath the text box. When i get an email with a list of questions it really helped to have their original message beneath my reply when I typed.

Not a big deal, but if there is a little check box you could click to bring that back, I for one would really appreciate it!

I agree, that was a useful feature.

I agree too. I have had to go back lots of times and look at the message because of my mistake short term memory.

It would be awesome to get that feature back. I have to open two Internet pages so I can have one with the pm and one with the reply I'm typing.

Not sure if that is something that gets enabled/disabled, but Glenn will know.  

We still have the option when posting but not for PM's anymore.(for Glenn-fyi)

In the meantime, why not copy and paste before replying until the feature is reactivated.

Start typing, then hit the BACK button.  Read, then hit the FORWARD arrow button.  So long as you hit the forward button, your text will still be there

or how bout we just get the feature back!

i think im quite clever enough to figure out the back button. but i mean if its easy, it would be cool to have it right below where I am typing. I can still read the original message while i am in the middle of typing. i type fairly fast and don't have to watch my hands.

If you hit the "quote" button instead of the "reply" when you have a PM open, it will display the original message in your typing area and you can just delete that when you're done typing
