Suggestion - Reply to Poster

[Shohoku79]

I think the old SGG form has a reply to each post within a thread so if what you are looking for is to reply to a certain poster's post rather than as a whole, you could just reply to that post, and that way the forum user who got "replied" to could also get a notification that someone has replied to his/her post.

Also, believe the old forum has an option in which if a user views for a thread for a certain amount of time, or previously replied to a thread, he/she will automatically be notified of any new activities the thread receives (if I remember correctly).  Currently, I don't think we get notified of any new thread activities unless we happen to see it in the new posts notification, or someone might have reacted, or quoted you, or perhaps checking the following the topic.

"Reply" is just "Quote" - or "@", even both.

If you're viewing a topic and a new comment is added it will come up.

If you follow a topic, you will be notified regarding any activity on it - the option is at the top of the topic and also bottom left when replying to one.
