Status: offline 		Being new to this forum, I was not aware that the "Reply" button at the TOP of the posts should be used instead of the button at the bottom (which seems more logical, and is what I am used to on other message boards). Sorry for any confusion from this, but some of my replies have been linked to the wrong original post because of this error I have been making. The program also won't let me delete them and do them over.

Status: offline 		This board is the worst, far too many ways to make replies that purport to be to someone you weren't actually replying to.

It's great to pay more attention to it, everyone should. At the same time, a little interface clean-up would be a good idea too. It's my impression that well over half the posts here are mislabeled that way.

Status: offline 		A lot of people use the fast reply button. It's easier, and frankly makes more sense. What they have to say won't change. But in the interest of clarity, good point.

Status: offline 		I knew the reply button at the top of the post would replay to the person you wanted to respond to, but when using the one at the bottom of the page for just a general response or input to no one in particular it still comes up, "in reply to....." bet this one reads in response to CalliopePurple. LOL



PS. I used the bottom postreply button cause wasn't replying to anyone in specific so how do you do it so it doesn't read in response to......

Status: offline 		If you wanna have it say "in reply to ..." and ... isn't the person that last posted, click where it says "Reply" at the TOP of that post.

And if you want to quote part of what they said before you reply just highlight what you want to quote and then click reply at the top of that post.
