Code Overdose

Sorry, only been on here two minutes. Just a couple of things I've
noticed :)
1. I often edit in Word and copy to browsers - but if I do that I
end up with a page of code on my post :o/ Any way to stop this
please? Otherwise I have to edit on Word then copy/paste through
Notepad (losing any formatting, such as links). Bit
long-winded.
2. When you're writing a new post, it doesn't tell you where you're
writing it. Once it's posted you see which forum you're in, but it
would be nice to be doubly sure which forum you're posting to at
the top of the new post editor.
3. I can't find any way to insert block quotes. It must be possible
because I accidentally posted something from another site and it
appeared in a block quote, but there's no button and HTML doesn't
seem to work - can you edit the HTML of posts? Being able to insert
a block quote would be really useful. You can on most forums.
Ermn, I'm done :)
Thanks.

1. That seems to be the only way to stop it. Something about this
site and word don't get on.
2. Sadly this is the way SocialGo is built.
3. There is no block coding. You can edit your HTML by clicking
on the button to the right of the smilie. But you can
only edit it while creating the post, or if it is the
very first post in a thread.
Invasion Power Board it ain't. But the advice here is priceless.
Welcome to the Cloud.

Thanks for the info! :)
It is a lovely place - I really like the status update concept,
like FaceBook. Adds another dimension.

Out of curiosity - is this software freeware? Is it possible to
code the HTML to fix it up? Or is there a users' forum where you
can put these fixes forward to the developers? The no-edit,
no-delete thing seems insane. Can't be that difficult to code out
if you can access it? Must be some willing volunteers? :)
