Here’s a quote of a previous post in the same topic:

I’m 99% sure these arrows used to point **up**. They’re only supposed to point to the right (i.e. forward) when the quote points to an _external post_ (from the same forum).

I am pretty sure this relates to @eviltrout’s changes can you test on try?
