Hi All,

Just a quickie

how does hitting the reply button in a forum work? Does the person who's post you are replying to get a notification? or does it just quote their post in your reply?

I find it quite hard to tell who's replying to who when reading...of course that could be down to my ever wilting intelligence.

Cheers

If you are replying to a specific comment it is always best to use the reply and quote button. But some people tend to forget this button so a thread can get a bit confusing. And you don't get notifications if someone has replied.

Cheers!

Even when quoting its kinda hard to follow, especially if there are lots of replies like 'me too' and someone replies to one of them! I guess I'll just have to practise!
