What really gets my goat...
When I'm reading a long, insightful post on the QOTW. I notice that there's a lot of replies as well, so I click into that link to read other people's reactions to the post. I decide to add one of my own.

So I click the large, emboldened link at the foot of the page and then accidently post it as a new post.

Why not swap the link at the foot of the post for a reply link?!?

Alternatively I could look at what I'm clicking. I realise this may be easier.

agreed
I keep accidently posting a reply as a new thread as you have to click reply twice. Its so annoying

I've lost count of how many times I've done that.

Same here
Especially when the post or replies have really empassioned (did I just make up that word?) you to post your own reply...
