Okay tree, obviously you didn't get the memo. If you want good forum formats and optimal response function you hafta' do porn. Take it off tree,..take it all off.

Margaret, Ning has not yet responded to the ticket I sent except for an initial auto-bot that said they'd received it.

I posted it below and will update everyone here on what our options are in the next couple of days.

My Ning network is primarily for sharing and discussing video content but it's very difficult to do that in a small-community setting (alternative to YouTube) without being able to reply to comments made in response to videos.

We can comment, but we can not reply to those comments in a way that makes sense and fosters true discussion.

I know this is achievable because Vloggerheads.com (another video-sharing Ning site) used their own CSS coding back when it was possible to do so. I'm not sure why it is that you did not adopt this as a standard commenting feature on videos. You have it easily within the group functions but not videos.

PLEASE ADD THIS TO VIDEO COMMENTS.

We should also be able to reply to a video WITH a video, as Vloggerheads did, by attaching it to the video it's responding to.

I'll soon be forced to switch to the very expensive plan in order to sustain the video-uploading capabilities on my site, but I'm only doing so if I can get these features included, otherwise, it's hardly worth the fee your company is asking.

Thank you.

I think the only part of Syd's message that Ning will see is "I'll soon be forced to switch to the very expensive plan" - that's the whole idea, right?
