Anyone else hate quoting with the iphone?

While it's much easier to browse the forum with my touch than my blackberry...responding is a pain. The dumb cut and paste function always comes up and it's nearly impossible to respond to a quote because you can't scroll the quote to the bottom...it won't move. ok, rant done....

It does bug me that you can't scroll to the bottom of the post. Would it kill Apple to put arrow buttons in there somewhere?

Exactly, it's fine if the post that you are quoting is short like this one-but if it fills upbthe box you're screwed.

I don't have those problems. The scrolling think is a bit of a pain, but the browser is so good, it's easy to overlook.

I don't have any issues unless it is a really long quote. In thy case I do have to scroll I believe.

I just tried quoting a really long message. I touched the screen until the magnifying glass came up and then scrolled to the bottom. Is that what you are having issues with? It works ok for me.

Didn't know that you could do this-thanks for the tip. Also, did you increase the spacing on the page numbers? It seems wider and is much easier to use than in the past.

Glad that helped. And yes, I increased the spacing of the page numbers. I always had problems trying to click those numbers because they were so close together. I finally got around to doing something about it.

Only way to do it. Although arrow buttons would be nice.

Yeah, I need to move that 'mark forums read' link. I've done that a few times myself.

Eh, it'll be fine. I have never had any real issues with it. If you really want I suppose you could hire someone to do it for you... But really. It's pretty good the way it is.
