Threads are so huge now I only read in threaded mode. I basically click on people I recognize and skip those that I don't. Anyone else do this in OOT?

What the [censored] is the internet?
Seriously, I think less of people who read in threaded mode.

I still read in flat mode but if the thread is enormous by the time I'm first reading it I'll skim quickly and usually stop at posters that I enjoy reading.

I read in flat mode and click on "show all" if the thread's longer than a page.

Exactly. Seriously, I hink use of threaded mode is grounds for revoking wacki's green status. Can we get a ruling, Mat?

Some movie.
I found it through a link in the "grossest movie ever" or something thread.
You might never find it though, what while reading in threaded mode and all.

The Internet is a communication device that allows people the world over to bitch about movies and share pornography with one another.

I don't read everything in threaded. I just looked at [censored]'s "I got arrested post". It's [censored] 125 posts long. I have basically 10 minutes to peruse OOT before I have to leave. I went to threaded and clicked on the names I recognized. JA sucker, you, and a couple others. 125 posts went down to like 5. Unlike a lot of people in OOT, I actually have stuff to get done during the day.

you cant look at it in flat mode and do the same thing? Set it so you can view like 30 posts to a page, then just scroll over it really fast looking for the avatars of the people you like.

I would, but people like Angrycola, Sponger, and you can't seem to pick an avatar.
Although you aren't as bad as Angrycola who changes his every week.

I read only in threaded mode, but I read everything and everybody . By the way I have tried to set my preferences for threaded mode like I did on my old account but it only shows threads in flat mode so I manually have to mke the change. How come?

Yeah, threaded mode is the fastest. Some threads break into 2 or 3 tangents, and you might just be interested in one tangent and threaded let's you get to that one.

This one is probably staying for some time, though.
Btw, I do the same thing with threaded mode, wacki.

So basically there was a time before which one must have established him/herself as 'cool' to have their posts read.
After that magic date had elapsed, everyone else became noise?

60 seems like such a silly, arbitrary number. I'm a fan of 50 myself.

I swear, you men obsess on size, size, size.
Bigger isn't always better if you don't know how to handle it. /images/graemlins/blush.gif
(and wacki- ironic, now that I've typed that- I use threaded sometimes to pick whose branch that I want to read, especially for the bigger threads. Don't be ashamed that you can't handle flat- "threaded" probably sounds more masculine to you anyway, right? ) /images/graemlins/shocked.gif
