Forums

It's all about dreams

It's not just you m8, I'm not particularly fond of it either. Couldn't be arsed to check the forum on that site you posted tho; I'm already signed up to like a gazillion sites already. Post a screenshot with explanatory text or something

About the single-thread thing you mention.. I'm not sure I agree on that point. The way the forum is set up now it kind of makes you not stick to a particular thread that much since the focus isn't shifted away entirely just because you click on a thread. Like right now for instance I'm writing this and I can still decide to check out the other threads in this category, while still being active in this particular thread. Did that make any sense at all?

I guess that's the reason for the individual threads being 10 posts long - if there was a "show all posts"-button in threads it would be too long and the whole focus would be on that thread - which is kind of a shame really; I'm one of those who likes to read an entire thread top to bottom without having to push the next-button twelve times..

What really would be awesome, for me at least, would be if there was some kind of option to make the threads "fold out" when you click them but you don't have to update the page. I can see why that's not implemented since all browsers don't support such AJAX'y ways, but I don't really see any reason for it not being an option for the rest of us since it would make browsing around on the forum much faster and intuitive - and I think the whole "design" of the forum itself kind of lends itself to this as well.

Just my 2 cents!

I like it it fun and easy, a bit like me
