How to reply in this forum

Unable to make replies to anyone’s post, using my iPhone 7 Plus iOS 12.1 for my iPad for iOS 12.1 or Mac iOS 10.13.6 or 10.12.6 ; and I am logged in with my profile. I can make posts, but have never been able to reply except one time to someone’s post. I would like to contribute as I have answers for some folks with their difficulties; and, would like to assist when I can. What am I doing wrong or what do I need to do to be able to activate reply? Or, is there just something wrong I am missing in my profile, or settings with this forum?

Best,

Seth

I am astounded how difficult it is to edit anything in this reply field. I’ve tried to copy and edit and no it’s karma and after easy edit bring back here only to have the fonts and everything completely messed up and although there are options to do many things on the toolbar I could not get any of them to work on this iPad 4. Well this time editing is much easier. Must’ve been a glitch in that particular one reply edit field.

You notice on my attempt to reply via complete mashed up and mix fonts and sizes. I would think clicking the Blue Bay would bring up changing fonts and sizes but instead it seems to create an email or website or something. I backspace to correct spelling or correct a word that spellcheck or changes to a word unrelated to what I want and then it capitalize the letter in the middle of a word. This is becoming an exercise of absolute frustration

Thanks so much for your simple and direct reply and explanation why I could not reply to many post. I knew it was a simple explanation and there you have it, they get locked up for 60 days. Thank you for your explanation.

Been a mackintosh than Apple user since there early 80s and have some ability to contribute, but just need to know the rules and how websites here work. I noticed that this is one place were putting a couple spaces that you don’t automatically get up. You actually have to place. To complete a sentence and I keep forgetting to do this so the sensors look like a bunch of run-on sentence. Now that I just stated that, to spaces giveInteresting!
