When will we get the quotes back? Support Apolyton or Terrorists Win

When 'Poly was on uBB we used to get these quotes on the "in-between" screens, after one created a thread, entered a message, or finished editing.

So when will we get this feature back?

Better yet, it could be improved to a "fortune cookie" type thing, where the quote is selected randomly from a file/database. It's not too hard to do with vBB it seems.

What say you, Markos?

Support Apolyton, buy Civilization: The Boardgame

Well, it's a Linux box, so you can (hopefully) just use `/usr/games/fortune -s` for a start.

And give an option to add also a -o .
