Reply to "How to use the Quote feature....and other questions about the share symbol...."

I'm sorry Alan, but "Copy link to reply" is not a replacement for quoting... I really hope we can regain that quoting functionality that most of us used effectively as you sort things out with this upgrade. And to blame it on the upgrade is disingenuous as it appears to be an OGR decision:

EDIT:

It is further confirmed that the Quoting issue is an OGR decision as you can see the customized edit clearly here:

One can override this setting client side by injecting this CSS in their browser or via a proxy or any other number of ways:

.h-quote-menu-item {
 display: unset !important;
}

 

 

I guess this is my bottom line... While some have misused & abused the quoting functionality, many many more used it to great effect and the benefits outweigh what I perceive to be a vocal minority. Nobody is has been reaching out to OGR every time they saw an effective quoting operation and said "Gee, this quote tied this response together despite the rats nest of tangents on this thread. Please don't take quoting away". But there were some when their feathers got ruffled by a misuse of a quote, by george OGR heard about it. To bad OGR couldn't have conducted a poll of sorts to really determine a representative sentiment. But this is OGR's forum, and they can do as they please with it. It is just a shame that a useful engagement tool has been removed. I'll be less inclined to engage and share my help with others if I have to put more effort into deciphering a wall "geocities" looking copy paste and subsequent reformat and spent more time formatting my responses to have proper looking quotes.
