It is confusing when trying to read a response. If posters would preface their replies with a reference to who they are responding to it would be a lot easier to follow.

For instance when responding to this post start by posting: "Smokey, confusing forums". Now we know you are responding to me and not Joe Blow. LOL

I don't profess to be smarter than anyone else, on the contrary, this is just something that bugs me when trying to read some of these forums.

Foot in mouth It was more  to posters not referencing who they were responding to.

I know Smokey, I was just messing with you again.  Let's try our old OFEC code.  You Know?  The disappearing text code?  See if this works:  "THIS NEW FORMAT ROCKS!"

He asked you to "Personal e-mail for "security", so you could give him the secret code. I wasn't aware it was even still a secret, but I guess the newcomers of the past year or so are still in the dark.

Hey, I'm just trying to help out here. I wasn't sure BJ understood that you wanted him to e-mail him the secret code, so I was trying to spell it out for him. He's generally pretty sharp, but with all that medication he has been taking recently, one never knows.
