Can't this forum's outdated format be updated? Message #1 Posted by mr-scorpio on 26 Sept 2011, 11:37 a.m.
Where each Thread starter is permanently shown & any replies are merely noted as a number etc, UNTIL you actually enter the thread & see the replies properly.
All this zig-zagging is very wasteful & inefficient?
It also means that a thread that would still otherwise be a few lines down from the top, gets shoved off the bottom of the screen, thus potentially being 'out of sight, out of mind', to anyone who might have replied, but no longer sees the thread, and thus forgets about it.
How much effort might be involved in migrating this Forum (& its archive) to a current style Bulletin Board system, say phpBB for example?
Please do not view this thread as a 'moan', but more as a constructive critisism in potentially kick-starting ideas for positive change.
