Well, I personally belong to about six or seven boards, and they are split into the format we use here and the format you are suggesting we go to. I personally do not like the other format. It doesn't allow for me to follow a thread as easily, as a matter of course, threads are difficult to establish altogether. You almost have to start a new post for a thread to be created. On the other hand, these boards do allow more information about individual participants, and it is easy to find which posts are the current hot topic. Also, you seem to have more options readily available in the manner and extent of which you can post. Such as, adding quotes from the original text. I guess it's sixes which is the better system. However, I will support whatever choice MM makes to manage the board and still leave it running for us. -RobRoy
