OK, here is Forum 101. Basic, but hopefully it will help reduce some of the clutter and "old habits".
Firstly, you no longer have to type NT in a post. Likewise, you no longer have to put some type of subject line in, when replying. You can jump right to replying to a post (by either clicking on the "quote" feature, or the little piece of paper on the bottom far right--this gives you "quick reply").
And, you have EDIT. You can edit your own post AND subject line if you started said post. No need to post a new topic correcting things.
Obviously, this forum comes with the ability to use HTML, change font colors, change font styles, insert images, format your post.. all sorts of cool tools.
Likewise, if you are at the main page of the forums (The well-trained mind forums (aka hive mind)--where you can see all individual forums)--all one has to do is click on "New Posts" up top and you can see the newest posts in ALL forums--including the swap forum!
Really, this forum is a lot easier to use than you think. Don't get frustrated and just ask.
The possiblities this new forum has is unlimited. :)
