Well, I haven't 'watched' more than 4 so far.....I better get busy, eh.

Quoting this makes me realize something else...wonder if nested quotes can happen here.
Pretty essential, IMO, in a busy chat thread with multiple conversations goin' on.

I'd also like to know... haven't figured out if nesting is an option.

Nesting doesn't appear to be an option. :( I just tried it, and it left out aart's part of the quote. I highlighted it all, and the quote option button didn't pop up. To get what I just put, I had to copy and paste it all, and you can see that it's not the same. Plus it would not work to copy and paste whole messages on an iPhone.
Arrg, my head is going to explode.:th I know nothing.

Hmm, I just noticed there's not an option for "search this thread". That's pretty vital. I just tried to find something that I know is a few pages back in this thread, but I can't. :(

No I didn't, I will have to check it out, thank you.
Good luck finding it. I've been playing around with the search engine, and it is nothing like the awesome one we had on BYC. It's actually like most other forums I've been on- frustrating. I think one of the most useful features of (the old) BYC was how you could type sentences in the search engine, and it would bring up things that actually pertained to that sentence. In most other forums, it is strictly keyword only. So it brings up every thread with the keyword, even if the context is completely wrong.

I do hope we can keep our old search engine. :fl

I can't find nothing with the search either. I read about Nifty taking suggestions for a video, but I haven't found it yet.
