Here's the page I referred to. The urls return 'this page does not exist'.
It's occurred in a few other cross-reference links, too (can't remember where).
Some image files have dropped off, too. Again, no biggie, but might simply be a switch needs flicking.
(I have no idea what any of this entails!)

Right, well that post was written in 2007, which I suppose was before we moved from vBulletin to myBB. So in other words the links you included in that post are, or were, the links on the old forum which no longer exist. Links you create now, or in recent years in fact, should work.

But it raises a good point. I've occasionally considered changing again as I'm not a big myBB fan. But if we changed, we would lose more links.

Aha! Got it.
Green plus selected = reply without quote
Red minus selected = reply WITH quote

Not worried about the links, thanks. I can go back and restore them (I plan to re-visit/ edit a few older pieces anyway).

Got it too... seems a trifle odd, but hey, well, weird us the new cool I guess.

Ah, but the reason for it is that you can quote multiple posts, like this.

Something I occasionally do when I've raised a fascinating point on my forum, and lots of people have commented on it.

No, seriously.
