this section from the FAQ's might help you out.

I used my testing ID, and I think you might seeing the drop down area of the quick reply box.
possibly your page or screen is jumping down to it instead of staying at the main posting or reply section.
there are other small sections (additional options ) (quick reply) that can be opened or closed by the little icon in the upper corner, but below the main post or message areas. There is usually a colored bar that divides the sections and the icon for open /close is in the upper corner of it.
I hope I am describing it clearly enough, it's a bit hard to explain it - post back if you need more help with it.
