Default Re: The New Forum Software!

Previously, you could either reply to an individual post in a thread, or simply post a reply to the thread - this seems to no longer be the case.

(Edit : As you can see, this post said, "Re: Arryn" even though it had nothing to do with Arryn's post, simply that I was clicking 'Reply' on a post of hers because there isn't a global reply.)

Also, quoting someone used to say who you were quoting; now there's a separate line/block that says "Quote:" but not who is being quoted, which is rather a waste of space. Is there a way to have that information included, rather than wasting another line to say it yourself?

Finally - there used to be icons for sending email or for sending a private message to someone, and now the icon for email seems to be for forwarding that post to someone via email.

Is there a trick to sending private Messages now, or not implemented yet?

Gracias.
