By the way, not sure about the replies (that’s strange), but with the starting threads bit, I had that trouble a couple of weeks ago and I couldn’t work out why. Anyway, after a bit of experimenting, I found out it was the length of the title on the thread I was trying to post. I took a few characters off the title and it worked. Not sure if that might have been the problem in your case, but you obviously managed to post this thread here with a reasonably short title.
