Ticket #300 (fixed enhancement)
Enable the "quick reply area" for the Guests too

Currently, the "quick reply area" appears only to the registred users.
Considering that the Guests (if enabled) can post anyway just by clicking on "reply", I guess it would be better to give them access to all the forum functionalities.

Maybe a new option (enable/disable quick post for guests) would be useful?

I forgot to add the Name and E-mail to $required_fields.

If you are logged, there is no need to display "Message (Required)".
It could be easily done by changing
<?php
}
?>
<label class="required"><strong><?php echo $lang_common['Message'] ?> <span><?php echo $lang_common['Required'] ?></span></strong><br />
to
<?php
echo '<label class="required"><strong>'.$lang_common['Message'].'<span> '.$lang_common['Required'].'</span></strong><br />';
}
?>
Then, I think displaying help text on the left side is ugly, it looks better on the bottom.

I think the old way was nice, as the textarea was about as wide as the post would then be. It made sense.
But then, I don't really care.
