A "New Thread" button instead of a "Post"
Yeah... uh aparently the difference between "Reply" and "Post" is blurred... by ingnorance. I think that just changing all "Post" buttons to a "New Thread" Button would fix this issue really quick.
Just a suggestion.

Boy, was I tempted to push the Post button instead, just to spite/emphasize your point.

Yes I agree, or just have it so that there's only the "Post" button while your browsing a forum not a topic.

I agree also, there have been numerous times when I presseed post, but since I never use a title when I reply, I am able to catch the error.

I always use the quick reply function, so this isn't usually a problem for me. Still, after seeing one particular newbie start 10 new threads instead of replying, I can certainly see the merits from this suggestion.
