03 was in the subject line added by the poster I think and no one is post as 03 Five Fires. Could be wrong but that's what I think. Phillipa

It wouldn't be only on Five Fires posts if it
was part of the subject line.

If it was another poster I guess the name would be in black though.

Well.. that was certainly helpful..

Sorry, I should have just let Dr. bob or the deputies answer.

Phillipa's right. Ace just typed it in the subject line and "spelled" your name wrong. When you replied, you didn't change the subject line.

It has nothing to do with the programming. People just sometimes write in names rather than using the "add name of previous poster" box.

Well Ace should have told me when I first asked about this days ago.

Everyone went on just talking around me, posting around me, I mean, and I began to think I was 'seeing things'!

If it was Ace who did this, I really feel he or someone else who saw it might have said something. I kept thinking about it and no one was answering me.

And, it's my understanding, but correct if wrong, another poster, I mean posting a followup to a post, should 'not change another's subject line', right?

tks all, 5f

Wait a minute ... Dinah,

You can change another's subject line?

I'm confused.

Five Fires when you go to type a message you can backspace then change the subject line. Watch this I will demonstate. Look at the next post okay after this one. Phillipa

But you can't change the subject line in someone else's post. You can only change it when you reply to the post.

Fivefires, you can change a subject line when you reply to a post - like what apparently happened when Ace replied to your post, and added the 03 to it, and then your name. And you can also make a subject line the only reply to a post (which is confusing, but handy if you only have a few words to say).

Which all looks clear as mud right now, but hopefully it will make sense eventually.

When you do just a subject line hit no message. Any questions just ask. Love Phillipa

I'd been unable to care for self, and now home has gotten away from me. Sorry to have not responded to any of these. I've posted and changed my subject, but I don't really think I've ever changed another person's post even when I followup. But, I understand now, this is okay, I guess. I'm not very well still so I think there's a couple other threads I should go to.

tks all, 5f
