The Question and Answer Board

Not much, anymore.

And it's likely to go away from the UI completely as the site redesign continues. Instead of "In reply to #12345" we will change it to "In reply to this post." It may still be used in URLs in some cases, so we can know which post is being replied to when a reply is being made so the proper linkages can be made. And places like paging back and forth on the board page so we know where the Next XX and previous XX starts.
