The only time that I use quick reply is if I don't want smilies or text manipulation, so that's a 'no' vote for me.

I use the quick reply box for all my posts. I'm using it now. I was actually just wondering If I was the only one who types smilies manually. :bugeye: :biggrin:

:rofl: :rofl: Yep, :buggrin: is my favorite! :tongue2:

I manually type them in whether I'm in quick reply or advanced; it's just faster, especially when the smilies move around and I would have to hunt for the one I want in their new order. It doesn't stop me from noticing when they move though. :grumpy:

That's good to know and it could turn out to be really handy,if the US ever enter a shortage of quick replies,like the ones in Finland.
