i used to use expanded mode.

now i haven't used it in months.

anybody who uses (continues to use) threaded/expanded mode is retarded. mods included.

no offense...i just tell it like it is.

This is really dumb and probably not worth discussing further if you truly believe it, but I'll try.

To get the most out of twoplustwo (for me anyway) you need to use both.

Collapsed mode sucks, and should only be used in oot or in the presence of a long thread that takes forever to load or makes the page not manageable.

If you can't see the value in knowing the structure of a thread, i.e. who is respnding to who, how much back and forth there is vs. everyone responding to the OP, changes in subject titles (for long threads) and more importantly who are the posters contributing, then there is no way you are reading twoplustwo in anything close to the most efficient way.


Also, regardless as to whether it's "better" or not, the mode is there for a reason, and it used to work fine. It should continue to work.

agreed that it should continue to work and the bug needs to be fixed.

but i was only 1/2 joking about not using expanded mode. my #1 hesitation in switching to collapsed/flat mode was that i wouldn't be able to tell who was responding to whom etc.

since switching i can get the same info very quickly and dont feel ANY loss in this department at all. i have switched back and forth a few times to be sure of how i feel and its really not close. collapsed/flat is way way way better imo...

but bug should be fixed for those still in the stone age [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]
