RE: prefix disc number
@minimaleffort: Thank you for your contributions to the forum. They are much appreciated.

Please don't quote long chains of previous posts in a brief reply post. The repeated text makes the forum thread hard to read. This is even more of a problem when a reply post quotes text from a previous reply post which includes text from an earlier reply post, etc.

When viewing a forum thread, there is a large New Reply button below and to the right of the last post to the thread. If you click this button to compose your reply, your reply will not contain any quoted text from previous posts. If you are replying to previous general discussion on the thread or to the previous post, there is no need to include quoted text and it is better not to do this.

There is also a smaller Reply button within each post. If you click this, your reply will contain the full text of that post as quoted text. Quoting a previous post might be neccesary to provide context for something you are saying in your reply. If you decide to do this, it can be helpful to edit the quoted text from the previous post so that you don't quote more text than is needed to provide the necessary context for your reply.

When you have written your reply, click the Preview Post button (next to the Post Reply button) before posting the reply. This shows you exactly how your post will look including any quoted text.

Thanks for your understanding.
