You need to be in a desktop mode. As to replying, you don't directly. YA is not a chat room or Facebook. YA is for Q&A, not conversation. You have two options:

1. E-mail or IM the user through their profile, if they allow communication.

2. Wait until you pick the BA and add comments for each user. Probably only the Best Answerer will see it since they only get a notification.

The ONLY exception is that you can add additional details to your question (little pencil icon on question toolbar) for clarification of the question. Do not call users by name doing this or it will be deemed chat.

By email. YA is not a chat site. That's why there are no reply or respond buttons. You May need to go t Desktop mode to do this

To enable your email to and from other YA community members:

1 Click your avatar to open up your YA profile/activity
2 Click the “Edit my preferences” hyperlink”
3 Click the Privacy & communications” tab when it is underlined top open up the tab page
4 Click the center of the button to the left of “Via email” until it turns green / gray
5 Click the “Submit” button at the bottom of the tab page

To email another YA community member:
1 Click their avatar
2 Clicking the “Email” [user name] will open up an email page
3 Click the “Submit button at the of email page to send the email

Y!A is not a chat room. It is a knowledge-seeking site in a question & answer format.

You have three options:

You can go to the user's profile & see if they accept IMs and/or emails. If so (and you allow them too) you can contact them that way.

You can make 'comments' when you pick your Best Answer.

You can use the 'add details' function to add additional information to make your question more complete or understandable. Be careful what you add though, you don't want to have your question reported as a chatting violation.
