Feature request: Threaded view mode removal

[Thomas Radtke]

It appears we have two view modes that lead to different approaches on how to quote: Linear view mode (LVM) users tend to reply to the original posting when referring to a post on a different node, while threaded view mode (TVM) users sometimes omit the quote. In both cases, readers in one 'camp' have difficulties to get the correct reference in postings from contributors of the other one.

One of the view modes should go to end the discussion. I'd vote for the TVM for two reasons:

(1) LVM users appear to be in the majority - less resistence is to be expected

(2) Threads within threads are nonsense when you have a forum software able to organize topics

Still, I could live with a different solution as long as this matter is finally settled.
