Copy your reply, cancel the reply box, refresh the page and then try replying again.
Machel, besides the advice already given, if nothing else works post a new thread in the Community Technical Question section, explaining the problem. It would also help if you say what operating system you use, and which internet browser you use.
Also say in your post if the Post Reply box, apart from not showing the Submit Reply Box, does it show the usual row of icons. In the past when people have had this problem, the icons have not appeared.
When you try to post a reply, have a look at the very bottom of the forum page, you may have to scroll down. It should show the powered by Hoop.la logo. In the past when I've had this problem, the logo was missing.
This would indicate that the forum page is not being properly loaded which is why you wouldn't be able to post replies.
If you have to create a thread in the technical section, say if you could see the row of icons and say if you could see the powered by Hoop.la logo besides the nature of the problem, the op system & browser.
All this info may be of help to the people at Seattle.
The other thing which may be worth doing is to check your broadband speed you are getting - lots of online testers for this - I use:
http://www.broadbandspeedchecker.co.uk/
If it's low, that could be what's causing the problem. If so, check the broadband status on your ISP website to see if there are reports of problems.
No joy yet it seems, machel.
You`re able to start a thread. Start another one and let us know what you`ve tried so far to try fix the problem.
Ignore ^^^ I didn`t see El Loro`s post.
Hope you get it sorted soon.

At least you've got the OPTION of using or not using it, poor machel hasn't at the moment.

That's Seattle time - you must have slipped into a parallel world. It's a risky business being a Mod.
Glad you got it sorted!
Machel, I'm glad you're back. It's a bit concerning that your computer clock lost time like that. It suggests that the CMOS battery in your computer may be wearing out (more likely if your computer is old) or that there's malware messing things about.

thanks el loro, spoke to my sil and he is going to look into it (computer buff)

That's a good idea
Machel, if your computer is showing Seattle time, then it could also be assuming you're not logged in at times, thus the non-displaying of the 'submit now' button.
And if it thinks you're not logged-in that would mean you being unable to PM either.
Fluffy, if the forum thinks you are not logged in, when you click on the Post Reply button you get a message asking you to log in.
I know that's what it SHOULD do, if things are working properly, but clearly things for Machel were NOT working properly.
Therefore, effectively, any manner of weird things could happen.
