When replying to a post, should I use the "quote" button or the "reply" button? I've seen both. But when replying I'd like the comment to be under the person I'm replying to.

    This board only displays comments flatly so your comment will go at the very end of the post no matter which button you push.

    Personally, I've never seen the point of the reply button, except that it saves you from having to scroll to the top or bottom of the page to add your thoughts.

    The quote button has the added benefit of quoting the post you're responding to so that people will be able to follow your thread, but it does not change where your post will appear within the responses.

    Thanks! It seems like it would be more user friendly to have the comments displayed from newest to oldest. And to have it where you can reply specifically to the person's comment. It's almost impossible to keep up and know who has replied/commented on the bigger posts. Thanks again.
