McGrath, I've just noticed that at the bottom of the threads here under the post box, there is a link that says "forum home" which does just that.

The button to press here to reply to a post is called "Submit Message" which is fair enough.

I'm just curious as to why you should find "Create New Topic" or "Reply to Topic" rather more difficult to understand than "Submit Message" and why you should think that "Forum Home" should perform different actions in the 2 forums.
