Confusion re replying to a POST comment OR a THREAD comment
This confusion crops up now and again and is capable of creating misunderstanding.
With the help from of our 'Neighbourly Team', I will attempt to explain:
The main post will display a white 'bar' with the word "Reply'.
So away you go. On close attention, one will note the comments follow the left hand margin.
As the comments increase, (these are called 'threads'...) there may be one thread you particularly wish to comment on.
Now is the time to use 'Reply', written in BLUE at the end of the thread comment. This will create an indent for the text so one knows the new comment applies to the new thread.
Hence one will note the 'margin' has moved to the right.
This action can also be used by another contributor and keeps the conversation focused on all inputs, rather than back to the main post at times.
My NT team member attached a cool graphic with Superman showing the 'POW!" in the correct place ... but my computer won't let me save and/or share unfortunately.
SO: just keep an open eye and mind to ensure a reply fits the comment.
