If you can't find an answer to your question here, then please use the Contact Us form.

If you are completely sure that you are logged in as a registered user, but you can't reply to a thread you started because there is no 'reply' button, then the most likely reason is because your web browser has cached a copy of that particular web page on your computer, instead of fetching the latest version of the page. This also sometimes happens across the whole of the Forums or the Photo galleries where you are stopped from reading old threads, or seeing full size versions of photos.
To cure this problem you need to FORCE REFRESH the page so that you make your browser get a new version of the page from the server.

How to Force Refresh -
Windows: reload the web page by holding down Ctrl+F5 or Shift+F5 keys, depending on your web browser.
Apple: reload the web page by holding down cmd+R keys.

If that doesn't help, try emptying your web browser cache (look in 'Tools' or 'Preferences' depending on your browser). You could also try using a different web browser to see if that helps. The problem will always go away in the end anyway.
