How to reply to a person's post

[Sea_Legs38]

Not sure where to leave this question, but how do I reply to it individual's post? I see others are able to do it, but for some reason I'm not sure how to do it. Thank you, Tim

There is also a multi-quote function that allows you to quote several posters in one post if you wish.

You are very welcome.

I wasn't sure which application you are using (I use Tapatalk), but then realized button/function is the same.

You can also edit your reply post within a certain time.

YOU CAN RESPOND TO TWO POSTS INDIVIDUALLY

 

Good to know. Again, thank you for the quick response.

YOU CAN ALSO RESPOND IN THE MIDDLE OF A POST THAT YOU'RE QUOTING

I'm just showing off :D

 

In a post that you want to quote, click on "+

Then click on "+ in the second post that you want to quote.

Then click on Quote in one of those posts, and a reply box will open with those two quotes.

Then you can play.

As a new Cruise Criticer, this is such a useful post.

The other thing I can't figure out is how to delete a post you've written, if you decide not to send it.   All I can find is "Submit Reply".       

Thanks Z.

If you have not sent it, you can just leave and it remains unposted.  If you have submitted it, you have a brief window of time to edit it, so you could delete the content.  However after that you have no further direct control.

That would be 20 minutes.

Yep, that's about it.

You can't delete a post.

Within that 20 min period you can edit a post by deleting all that you've posted and replace it with "deleted" or "sorry, wrong thread" or "oops, my bad" or some such.

after that editing period the only way a post can be deleted is by asking the moderators - click on "report this post" top right of the past, and take it from there.
