Firstly, when I'm quoting a nested quote, the first unquote
closes all quotes instead of just the innermost. This shows in both previews and posted comment.
Secondly, when in the Live game, if nothing's happenning for some time and you're inactive, you get disconnected. This is fine, but the bad thing is, there's no indication that this has happened. Everything lokos and acts like you're still connected, and only logging in again will show people have (dis-)appeared.
Thirdly, when I've posted a new topic, I can't edit it like a normal comment, when I forgot to preview and spellcheck.
Fourthly, when posting a new topic, preview shows an empty box.
Just FYI. I guess Huey has been pretty busy.

It doesn't but there's a trick to it-- the inner nested quote can't be attributed; i.e. it can only be
rather than
. The thing to do is to put the person's name inside their quote as in

There are a coupla things here; 1 is that members have more access rights and (IIRC) can edit their own posts. I might look into that for auth users as well.
2ndly is that the preview is a known bug and will only be fixed when we upgrade. we plan to have an AJAX spellchecker and the preview issue should go away (or rather come to stay
). More info when we have it.
