Here's the deal. Too many people using my Phorum are hitting the Reply button to reply to posts. The Reply button quotes the previous post in its entirety automatically.

What I want is for the Reply button to behave like the New Reply button; that is, to allow for a reply without quoting an entire previous post.

We have too many people who are too lazy to delete quotes from previous posts, and they just keep adding up...

Steps to reproduce:

Click the Reply button to reply to a post.
The previous post shows up as a quote automatically.
The poster makes no effort to edit or delete the quoted text.
The poster submits the reply, which includes the entire previous post as a quote.

Thanks in advance for any help on this subject.
postbit_quote template
<a href="newreply.php?tid={$tid}&amp;replyto={$post['pid']}" title="{$lang->postbit_quote}" class="postbit_quote"><span>{$lang->postbit_button_quote}</span></a>
you can remove &amp;replyto={$post['pid']} & save the template
Thank you! Just what I needed. I appreciate the help!
