To include the post you are commenting on in your reply:
Click the "Quote" button.
Then edit out the everything but the most relevant text so that you're not just duplicating the entire post.
A better way is to click on the POSTREPLY button above and to the left of the top post. Then scroll down to the post you want to quote, highlight with your mouse the part you want quoted, then click the QUOTE button in the upper right of the post.
To not include a quote and start a fresh post:
Click the "Reply" button above the upper left of the post.
To start a brand new topic in the same forum:
Click the "New Topic" button above the upper left of the post (or some styles only have the button on topic listing pages).
