I was mostly being a smart-ass about the laziness thing. Palatine Send a noteboard - 12/05/2011 05:16:40 PM
It's a tendency of mine.

Still, it was interesting to read the replies to it.

What I don't understand is the resistance to giving people who want paged threads (who may not be the RAFO majority, but do seem to be the internet majority) that OPTION while preserving the nested option for those who don't. I'm not saying we should redesign the site to accomodate new members at the expense of old, I'm simply saying no such choice is necessary and should therefore not be made.


As I said, I haven't read every post regarding this particular topic, but it seems that you have. Is there really that much opposition to the option?
