Quote:Hi Gang, I've been a taxi member for years, but I'm new to this forum. There is a lot of great music floating around here, and some extremely talented songwriters! I'm a songwriter and a performer from Lancaster, PA, haven't gotten the home studio yet, but hope to in the next several months.I can't wait till I can write and record for the specific listings, like so many of you are doing. Anyhow it's been great reading and listening to you all, and I hope to get to know you in the future.Best-Dave CostarellaHey, Dave. Welcome. These boards are the best. Stick around, and you'll see for yourself.Ted

Thought I'd ask a couple ?'s to anyone currently logged on here relating to navigating through these threads.Where do these get posted/ how to post to the right reply?I just put something up on the "3 things" thread from the road rally and the post never made it to the actual page I wanted to reply to, hence wondering where this will actually end up.thanks

Does it have something to do with the "taxi time" which actually 3 hours ahead of when I'm writingand will get posted to the "regular" stream later?I feel like I'm in some weird twilight zoneis it always like this?how do I get to post to the normal threads and pages?

Hey, Monster. Welcome to the boards.Any specific post you wish to reply to, click on the "quote" in the upper right-hand corner. That posting will then be embedded in your reply. Do a spell check , and then click on "post reply". Hopefully THAT part of this is self-explanatory. Your reply/post is automatically immediately placed at the end of the thread, so as to keep every post in chronological order.Easy.BTW, "monster" was my nickname for my 136 lb. Great Pyrenees, Wilson. First time ever that the animal chose me, instead of the other way around. I miss him terribly, still to this day, so don't be surprised if I get a little sentimental from time to time.You made the right choice by getting involved on these boards, I promise.Ted

Hey TedThanks for the help. but I still dont get where these post to, or when for that matter.I fixed the time issue by exploring, but I clicked on your name as the last messenger on this thread to bring me back here.... will this little mini conversation be posted to the general message thread at some other time?

I'm not sure what you are doing. If you click on "reply" on any thread, and then click on "post reply" your reply will immediately come up as the last thing on that particular thread.

Thank You VikkiI just figured out that the posts are found on the "last pages" of the threads. Wasn't sure what I was doing either. Thanks also Ted for the help steering, honestly curious about the "Pyrenees".
