I just tested the vendor forum and I found that I could, if I wanted to, reply to a vendor's post. I think we should not allow replies to vendor posts. I think they could become at best a distraction from the original post and at worst an advocacy or bashing free-for-all. The vendor should be able to edit the post, but replies by others? I think that's a bad idea. There are other forums where we can express opinions ... like this one
