yes, a public post is a public post and people can reply and are often even encouraged to do so (just like is happening here in this discussion)

the thing is some replies are the online equivalent of throwing tomatoes at someone, talking over them and repeating what they said, or even something more violent. None of those actions are helpful.
a proper reply adds to the discussion. "reply guys" are usually more about acting as if the person who originally posted does not know what they are talking about.
