Meta Question
How come no one here seems to be able to "reply" to posts? Doesn't everyone see the "reply" check box? Does it not work for some people? What the heck's going on?
Cause I got a headache from freakin' scrolling my eyes up and down the screen, trying to figure out who the hell's talking to who.
Or is it "whom"?
I need aspirin.

I think it's because we have to keep relogging in.
I've noticed that if I start replying to a post, and then it tells me I have to log in (twice usually) I lose the 'reply to' box.
Then I have to scroll up to the comment I'm replying to and hit reply again.
The only good thing is that I haven't lost a post yet, (er, well O.K. maybe one or two,) so it's always helpful to copy your post first in case it disappears.

Hmmm...when that happens to me, I do the stupidly repetitive twice-logon, but it also seems to keep the reply box checked. Weird.
But that would explain it.

Here's the solution:
Keep two tabs open. When you get a box that tells you to log on again. Go to your alternate tab. Bring up the main tpm site. You'll see a place that automatically provides your id and password. Then click. If the automatic thing does not come on, then go to your profile. The id and password will come up there.
Once you've logged in at the second tab, you'll find your message (including reply) will still be there and you can just click post. And it will!!!
I do this all the time. Saves a lot of headaches!
