I hope I can express myself ok ! I have not used a forum before this so am learning as I go along.

I posted on a forum, ppl replied. I wanted to reply to them all so when each of their posts was up I clicked on the reply tab on their message. Fine, but I found I was adding to the thread I had started so there were loads of posts to my thread but they were really to the individuals concerned .... hope you are following this ! ...I feel that this isn't what happens cos those ppl may just think that I have got more replies, not realising the replies are for them . I've done loads of these replies today, and now am worried ppl won't see them !!

Is the right thing doing PMs ? Or is that only for really personal stuff ?

Sorry if I sound ignorant - but I am !!!! I would so much appreciate any advice on this, if you can't get what I mean hope you will ask for clarification Just confused.....

cheers, Poppet

Welcome!

You did fine!

If you want only one person to read something you write to them, then you can PM them. But most people just reply publicly to replies in a thread they started, just as you did.

Best,
DocJohn

attentionThis is an old thread. You probably should not post your reply to it, as the original poster is unlikely to see it.
