HOLY CARP!!!
The 'report' and 'quote' buttons are right next to each other. I would imagine it is easy enough to accidentally hit the report button. However, you would think it wouldn't take too long to realize you are on the wrong page. First, there is the fact that the page says in big letters at the top, "Report to Moderation form", also, next to the text box, it says "Reason for report". Finally, the button says "Send Report".

Yet somehow, people manage to fill out the "Reason for report", and press "Send Report", without realizing they are reporting a post, rather than replying in the thread. I chuckled to myself the first time it happened, but am really baffled that it has happened several times.

I mention this, because when this happens, you are tagging someones post as offensive, and also your reply is lost.

I won't mention any names, like TomK, Jack Frost, and ivorythumper. ;)

Civilisation, I vaguely realized then - and subsequent observation has confirmed the view - could not progress that way. It must have a greater guiding principle to survive. To treat it as a carcase off which each man tears as much as he can for himself, is to stand convicted a brute, fit for nothing better than a jungle existence, which is a death-struggle, leading nowhither. I did not believe that was the human destiny, for Man individually was sane and reasonable, only collectively a fool.

I hope the gunner of that Hun two-seater shot him clean, bullet to heart, and that his plane, on fire, fell like a meteor through the sky he loved. Since he had to end, I hope he ended so. But, oh, the waste! The loss!

What happened to my reply?
The problem with having an open mind is that people keep trying to put things in it.

My bad.
The Confederate soldier was peculiar in that he was ever ready to fight, but never ready to submit to the routine duty and discipline of the camp or the march. The soldiers were determined to be soldiers after their own notions, and do their duty, for the love of it, as they thought best. Carlton McCarthy
