Online Community - Comments, Improvements and Feedback

Dear Community,

We were pleased to see so many comments about the community on the recent thread about the Leader Board. We are always wanting to learn more about how we can develop the community and so have locked the previous thread so that all comments and suggestions about general improvements to the community can now be placed here on this thread.

Please comment here on any ideas, improvements or feedback you have about the Online Community. 

Please note that although we take on board all your ideas, we may not be able to implement all of them.

As always, please be kind and respectful when commenting to each other.

Thanks,

NAS Moderators

  • I know how to quote another poster but can see no  way to quote text from an outside source like an article.

  • The basic steps are:

    1. copy the text you wish to quote
    2. paste the text into your forum reply

    To make it obvious the text is a quote, it should either be enclosed by quotation marks (double or single, your choice) or be formatted in italics. To format the pasted text in italics highlight all the pasted text then select Format, Italic from the options at the bottom of the forum reply box.

    Please note: depending on the source copied, you may find that the pasted text contains its own formatting (e.g. bold, large font).

    If the formatting is, for example, simply bold then it can be removed by highlighting all the pasted text and selecting Format, Bold from the options at the bottom of the forum reply box.

    The other way to remove the formatting is to paste the text as unformatted into another application (e.g. a Thunderbird message, Notepad) and then copy that text and paste it into your forum reply.
