If you see an elipsis (...), like in this message: "...number of ways to communicate, among t......" there is actually more to the message - those dots are just letting you know that only the first part of the discussion is being shown. Just click on the name of the discussion itself. For instance, under the name and photo of the person who posted last in the discussion, you will see the words " Posted a new discussion - [title of discussion]", for example "Posted a new discussion - How do I send messages in the Member's Area? ". Just click on the discussion title, in this case "How do I send messages in the Member's Area?" and you will see the rest of the message.
