Looks like you have it figured out.

Under the Forum tab on the home page choose what subject you would like to post to. If it's a thread that has already been created simply go to the last post in that thread and add your post to the empty field below that last post. It's called "Quick Reply" or click the "Reply to Thread" button which is on the left side below the last thread.
Hope this has been helpful.

What browsers are you using?

It could easily be the browser. I don't know exactly what your problem is, but I've used several browsers that don't cooperate at all with the site, some that don't even let you click the reply box to start typing. Especially browsers on mobile devices, phones, iPads, etc.

I use Firefox 21.0 Love it. Used to struggle with Internet Explorer. Not anymore.

Nobody deserves to be put through what Internet Explorer puts you through.

I have Explorer and tried firefox but no joy. If I hit enter to start a new paragraph nothing happens, if I try to use the spacebar instead, it just keeps going off the page and the arrow keys will only go left !!! to mention just a few. Anyways I'm still here and have a friend who knows more than me about these things coming to take a look for me soon. At least I can still enjoy reading and viewing, just can't join in for now.... I'll be back !

yeah firefox is awsome especially when you start adding their plugins/addons/skins, etc. super stable and quick. first thing i do on a new computer or install is get firefox and make it default browser. haven't touched internet destroyer (that's what I call it) since 5.0.

I was thinkng maybe the problem here was the post count restrictions but that shouldn't be a problem now

someone else had that problem too recently. I'm using firefox 21 and having no problems
