Saves having to scroll through quoted repetitions of long posts, just to find that the response was "Yes" Took me a while to discoer you could do it that way, but editing the text within the 'quote' markers sin't too tricky either Or am I just being too picky?

Yes

Sometimse they even have quotes within quotes, I wonder what the record is for nested quotes. Maybe I just get annoyed too easily?

Yes

BTW: How do you do that thing where you have an URL link, but the post just shows a nice little title, like 'click here'?

PS: Damn, I spelled the name of the thread all wrong - serves me right for being a pedant!

Thankyou for applying negative feedback to my recursive joke - another nested quote might have driven me over the edge! 😉

trog - when you click reply, on the right side it says BBCode just click that and it tells you how to do stuff like links, colour text etc etc 😉

Thanks - knew there must be instructions somewhere but couldn't see for looking!

P.S. If it's any consolation, I got the hangover that I deserved! 😊 Does Firefox have a 'block access to drunk users' setting anywhere? 😉 An SM plugin to detect slurring in the human voice might do the trick!

LOL 🙂

I drank a bottle of Jack Daniels last night with a friend. Luckily I was far away from devises equipped with more suffisticated buttons than play, stop & eject 😀

Very wise. I had to replace my main power amp a few years ago after having a 'Laurel and Hardy' moment involving a guitar cable and a bottle of Bud. (don't know why, but when playing guitar in the studio I always end up going round and round in counter-clockwise circles 😕 ) Suffice to say, power amps don't like drinking lager as much as I do! 😊

Can I get you another beer? 🙂

A few rules keep this a friendly place. You agree to them once.

    Open it in SynthMaker?

    It goes on the track you’re editing there, in place of that track’s sound, and into My sounds. Your other tracks stay as they are.

    Want to keep that track’s sound? Start a new song in SynthMaker first (Song › New song), then open this.
