    Not only my Deecrepit name which needs that second capital letter… It is merely annoying.

    What is really inconvenient is that the Reply in all ten-plus messages under the poem again “cannot find the Reply Form.” It seems to be only in MyPage. Elsewhere they work for me. (I have used the reply, but either it is gone again, or I did it from a different page.)

    My workaround will be to go Help, find the recipient by typing in the name, and IM it.
    With an IM no one else sees it. Considering we are here to learn, if everyone did that, the value of good critiques is lost to others.

    PS So why did I not see “Edit” at the right?
    Editing with it now, but again it is gone while typing, then back again. Any reason we can’t stick with one system only?
    This adds to fatigue.

    No way to edit a comment after it is sent.

    Considering we are here to learn, if everyone did that, the value of good critiques would be lost to others,
    —or greatly delayed.

    Crazy-making! That option was available on this one, but not the one above.

      I been checking things out for you. Now, when you say you cannot reply from MY PAGE; well umm there is no way to reply to anything from MY PAGE. Bear with me here. On MY PGAE you will see:

      Add Poem
      Freewrite Topics
      Responses to you
      Logout

      So, you click on RESPONSES TO YOU; this is where you will see comments of those who have replied to you and you can then hit REPLY to those.

      Now, from MY PAGE again you will also see this menu:

      My recent poetry

      I haven’t posted any poetry yet, stay tuned!
      My recent comments
      1 – 4 of 23 1 2 3 4 … 6 next >

      These aren’t where you can REPLY from directly either. If you wanted to make a reply on any of your recent reviews or comments, you would need to click on the title of the poem/post and go to it directly to reply to it.

      So in conclusion, there is NOTHING from MY PAGE that says REPLY for any of us.

      In looking at your poem, http://sharepoetry.com/poem/show/2296, it shows every comment has a REPLY button to me. So, if you cannot see this from the POEMS page, then I guess it is just you, or maybe it has been fixed. Don’t see how with the Kevin being on his mooooon.

      Is it possible you’re expecting the system to do sth for you that it doesn’t for any of us? It sure can be confusing.

      You said “cannot find the Reply Form.â€? This is an error message you’re getting? Maybe it’s a site burp. Where it works, then it won’t but if you try it again it will?

      How frustrating. Let me know. It’d be nice to help you!

        Frustrating it is!

        Thank you Adrienne! It has been AT MyPage—the personal one assigned to me, only—and the page where my own poem and its replies are found. Those are the replies that need clarifications and dialog, and where it lists Reply as an option for everyone but me; I get a white rectangle telling me it is not available.

        Briefly it actually worked, and then went pfffft again.

        Everywhere else I have no problems. It does waste a lot of time which should have been spent doing new critiques.
        I'm sure it will work out eventually but I do hate wasting time.

        Hang in—I’m going there next and will get back to you if anything has changed.
        Terry

        PS, seems OK now but my confidence rating has fallen to 25% If it were a car, I’d trade it in.

          Doubt post for Kevin

          Well I got it. But I see now more what you meant.

          KEVIN:

          In Mozilla, when in MY RESPONSES the reply button brings up a dialog box JAVA SCRIPT APPLICATION / Unable to find reply form. So that is a definite bug yup.

          And in IE, I do the same and IT says: MICROSOFT INTERNET EXPLORER Unable to find reply form.

          So DeeCrepit, wait TERRY sorry, at least it worked where you can reply here. Whoo yah.

          Oooh you aren’t online either Poor Kevin! What work have we got for him Your attitude and patience is to be commended though. These things will get fixed.

    Deecrepit-NO, DeeCrepit YES!

    Deecrepit still greets me on first entering. I do hope it will be corrected before old age takes me.

      That would be nice. I regret having been the perpetual squeaky wheel. Sorry about that.

      PS, no more squeaks! Wheeee!
