Is the quote button the only way to reply to a post. I am new to blogging and message boards. I started my own but am unsure how to post to some one elses question. I was interested in the super hero question. some one please help.
How create topic/reply
I moved your post from the other topic in order to avoid mixing questions.
If you want to create a new topic about something (like for example this question) you just need to go to the forum you want to post the topic in and press the
button available at the top and end of the forum you are going through.
When inside a topic and you want to reply (without quoting, that one you figured out) just use the
button available at the bottom of the topic. (if you see a different button on the bottom of the topic, like 
it means it is not possible to reply in that topic)
If you have any more questions regarding using phpBB forums, just post a on this topic.
Be Well

You can also use the 
button like you were, this is useful if you are trying to comment on a post made earlier, instead of commenting (or adding) on (to) the current discussion.

Exactly. That is also done that way for people to actually read the topic before posting. sometimes people just reply to the first post and most of the times there is already a similar post/question/explanation.
If you are interested in posting in a topic, you should be interested to read it (fully) also. So the post link should on the bottom of the page, where you will be when you finish reading the topic.
Be Well
Here is also another little snippet that might be helpful. If you see that you made a mistake in a post, just go to that post and click EDIT which is right beside quote, and you can fix it. If you are the last person to post and you want to get rid of it, just press the little X near QUOTE.
