Prevent replies to OP

[ToddZ]

Not sure I’m understanding the issue…

Correct me if I’m wrong, but I think the Reply button on the OP and the Reply button for the Topic do the same thing – only the Reply button on subsequent Posts (comments) differs by inserting the reply within the thread?

You might be interested in the CSS mods we came up with to differentiate the various Reply button labels over at:

Is there a way to link replies after they are posted?

Is there a way to modify an existing topic reply to be a post-specific reply? I know I am guilty of it as well, but there are numerous times that I see someone clearly replying to a specific post but they mistakenly use the topic reply. It would be great to have the ability to fix the reply-type via the “select post” menu.
