I still don't get it. When there are 100+ replies and you've already read them all and then you come back and there are 14 new ones, you click the thread in flat mode and it takes you right to the 14 you haven't read, and they are in chrono order from top to bottom. How is that not better than threaded? Because you can't see exactly who they were responding to? It's pretty easy to get the context 99% of the time.

most of the time when a thread has a 100+ posts its b/c of arbitrary bickering and fights. in threaded mode i can see the endless replies to one another and then from there pick and choose "whose" post i want to view.
in heavily bodied threads on topics that i arleady have an opinion about and could careless about what 95% of what the OOT says about it i usually only view a few certain posters replies. now, with the the upgrade i am lost.

Bingo. I have no interest in reading EVERY post in a thread...only a few that interest me - I especially like to see who has responded to MY posts, so I can easily read and reply back, if I choose. This was easier to do in Threaded mode before the upgrade.

Ok, I can see that. I am no longer a rabid anti-threadite.
