Where's the reply button next to a post?
EDIT: I just cleared my cache. I still can't find it.

Yeah, what's this about a reply button? I don't see it anywhere.

Same here, where is it?

Maybe you guys forgot to add it, or maybe it is only for the ST…

That is a good idea, that way it can be reviewed before a user can put a post up for a couple minutes then delete it before mods see it.

Edit: Btw, for those who don't realize: The reply link is a button. At the top left of a user's post (left of their name), there is an arrow. That is the “Reply” button.

I'll add a screenshot. I'm surprised, though—I thought more people were acquainted with the “reply” icon; it's pretty standard.

That's because they're PNGs (bitmap). I have an SVG of the rely icon (I made it), and I can vectorize the smilies pretty easily. I'll work on it
