Hi all,

You know those kinds of catch-all posts that have many topics?  Sometimes I would like to reply to one subject (and I have seen other people do that) but my reply goes to the bottom of the list where the conversation has moved on.

How can I post under the correct issue?

Thanks for your help!

Not sure if this is what you mean.  But, on every post in the upper right hand corner there is a red word "reply".  Click on that before you write your post.

Wait the color Blue is correct?  But isn’t the reply button the color Red? B-)   Its best to cut back on that coffee, Yohanan.

Keep in mind though ... when you tag someone’s post it sometimes gets lost in lala land for others to read ... especially if there are many many posts after it.   Sometimes I wonder if its best to just copy the quote you want to expand on so it lands in the current slot for all to see?  Sonya is a pro with doing it that way ... :yes:

I agree with that. One of the things I have to do as a moderator is read all the posts so when I see a thread has a new one I usually scroll to the bottom of the page. But this isn't always the case. Just this morning I had to scroll all through a rather large thread to find the new post, which was a fair ways up towards the top. Chances of someone else reading that post are slim. So it's best to quote the post you want to reply to at the bottom of the thread if you want others to read it.

Since they switched carriers, posts often appear in random spots!  Also when I boot up for RITAN, it comes up on page 71 or 80 frequently!

Hmmm, that's interesting TR. I'll pass that along.

I have tried that before but it didn't seem to work (hitting reply).  I'll see if it does now.

Also, the color blue has been besmirched by the color of a states leftist leanings.  Boo hiss!!

One other feature I'd like top point out, Patricia N -- Note the button on the upper right here, the one with the padlock symbol to the left.  That is a Matthew 7:5 tool to help with other's specks or motes: "You hypocrite, first take the log out of your own eye, and then you will see clearly to take the speck out of your brother's eye."  Simply push the LOG OUT button up there to hopefully see more clearly.  And it's really cool.  You get a chance to say, "never mind," if you don't really want the log out after all.
