haha, I've been thinking that quick reply has been a new feature for the forums for a while. (Stopped visiting, came back with firebird). I just fired up IE and no quick reply. Nice, how is firebird able to pull that off though?

Or perhaps we'd like to edit Xiety's?
Xiety's Post

It's fairly easy atm to edit other people's posts. All you have to do is guess the message id. And an easy way to do that is reply look at that id and then step back a few and you'll hit the one you want. The ids are unique for the forums though, so a 5 day old post would be pretty hard to guess the number for.

Is this in Issues yet?

You don't have to guess when the forums are f'ed up. just copy-paste the link. Thankfully Fusetalk saw this error coming which checks the member ID before allowing an edit.

It is available to IE users. It is just disabled by default. Click on the Red Arrow at the top of any thread.
