Can't manage to reply to a specific person in a thread.

Hey out of cards,

I created this thread :

https://outof.cards/forums/hearthstone/deck-building/4080-finished-climb-to-legent-with-odemians-bomb-warrior-have-a-look

People asked questions and I wanted to reply but I never managed to reply to the people I wanted. For example, if I click reply under Marega's post (1st one) my comment will appear (at least on my screen) as a reply to Bersak's post (last comment when I replied).

I tried to deleted and repost many times until I just gave up.

I use Firefox on windows 10.

      When you hit "Reply" to a comment, it puts the comment at the end of the thread, but it sends a notification to the user you are replying to that you replied to their comment. If you are replying to an older comment in the thread, I would suggest hitting the "Quote" button, so others reading the forum know what post you are replying to.

      Hi, Gwavana,

      "Reply" is a bit misleading as to what it does, or rather what it does in Forums. Forums have a different structure than Comments (articles, decks etc.). When you reply in a Forum Thread, that post will always be last (=newest) no matter what and there are no nested conversations, that wouldnt work and it wouldnt make sense for that anyway.

      If you want to reply to a specific comment use Quote button, that way the comment will be added to your post and the reader and everyone else will know which post are you replying to ;-)

      As Xarkkal said, for Forums, it is better to use Quote instead of Reply, so everyone who reads your post knows what is going on.

        I will add a little to this too. If a message you're quoting is getting too long, you can use the "Spoiler" button to hide some of the text. I hid your original text in this comment as I'm Quoting Sinti, who Quoted you. Just helps keep things a little cleaner.
