If you just joined a forum using your Apple Account and the reply buttons are faded out, it is usually caused by one of a few common forum restrictions or account configuration issues.
1. The Thread is Locked or Archived
This is the most common reason a reply button is grayed out. If you arrived at the page via a search engine, you might be looking at an old thread.
- The Reason: Many forums (including this community automatically freeze and lock old or inactive threads.
