    Previous posts embedded

    I notice that all my replies embed the previous post into my message. How do I stop this, I feel bad using up all that space.

    I quietly wondered what that might be about

    Use the quick reply box at the bottom, or hit the Post Reply button near the top and bottom of the thread instead of the Quote button.

    Or you could carry on the way you're doing it and just delete the stuff in the quotes tags

    I do use the quick reply. But still previous message is embedded. Should I remove the automatically parse links and media ticks in the miscellenous options menu?

    This is using the Quick Reply button that shows up in each post.

    This is using the Quick Reply box at the bottom of each thread.

    Anthony, even if you use the Quick Reply button, you can just delete the quoted stuff it pulls through into the editor.

    You'll also note at times I just quote the relevant part of a post. It's done much the same way - just keep the relevant part and delete the rest.
