I've been thinking about this. Why doesn't MR implement the "quick response" feature on its forum?

See pic to know what I'm talking about. Everyone forum except MR has this that I visit. 😉

It's been brought up and shot down a couple of times. 😱
Pst, your last two links were included in the 2nd post of that first link. 😉

Actually, if anyone ever bothers to read threads (yes, even if they're older, people usually link to them because they're relevant), you'll find the reasonings for why MR and the admins have decided against using this feature.

Here... in case you're too lazy:
It encourages more posting with less thought. And that's been enough to settle the question.
From an admin, no less. 😛

But we already have tons of posting with no thought behind it. 🙄
 
my personal opinion is that we would see a large increase in number of posts, but no increase in actual thoughtful content..
