i have tried a few occaisions to reply to someone but they never seem to get my post as a reply directly to them (Still on the board) but so that they see the post is replying to their post?
Was trying the quote button and reply button ?>> what am i doin wrong?
If you wish to reply in the thread, and respond to a specific part of someones post the the quote function is what you are after. There is no guarantee they will see that post you made, but your post will be a part of that thread forever. I've seen people post messages and never come back to see the responses on occasion, but thats probably not the norm. And just because someone doesn't respond back to you doesn't mean they didn't read your response....
Now, if you want to send a message to someone, then you can try sending them a Personal Message. But personal messages are just that, personal. Responding to threads via personal message defeats the purpose of a public message board. Public responses are how we keep the discussion going!
