No reply button

I wasn't sure which forum this should go in. I no longer see the "reply" button for individual posts. The only reply button I have is the one to post a general reply to the thread. Is this something on my end, or is this feature no longer available?

Thanks
I hadn't noticed (never used the feature myself) but I think it's a good idea to remove it -- when I saw people using it, more often than not the whole previous post was replicated with no effort to edit it to the specific part the reply was for. I think this is a good measure to cut down on noise and save some bandwidth.

The "Reply" link has turned into the "Quote" link. They do the same exact thing.

Jeff changed the wording because we thought too many people were confused about when to reply to the thread in general and when to reply using a quote.

Yeah, what Lynch said.

If you're referring to a Usenet-style threading model, that will never happen on any site I run. The popularity of UBB over the last four or five years, along with a number of human factors studies I've read, prove that it isn't a good way to structure a forum, simply because it's not the way people communicate.

Thanks for pointing that out. I didn't realize that the "quote" button was pretty much the same thing.
