If you want to set quick reply this is what you need to do.
On the top of the forum click Profile
Then click Look and Layout
At the bottom you will see "Use quick reply on topic display" Then a pull down box. Change it from (show off by default) to Show on by defalut.
Then save and your all set.
Im working on making this a global change for all members. But for the time being set it yourself if you want quick reply.
Thanks
