Is there a way to show threads, maybe it's called 'threaded view', like SPS is? Maybe I'm just missing a setting. As it is now, there's just a list of topics, without replies, on the main forum page. Clicking on a topic then shows the replies, but there's no way to tell who a person is replying to unless he quotes the other. You just have to guess.

I have always wondered this as well.

Press display, then threaded mode at the top of the OP.

OK, thanks. That works (hybrid view might be better since you can then see all the replies). The threads are shown at the very top. It's kinda cumbersome to have to do it every time though ... it's still "linear" on the main page. I suppose you can see a lot more threads that way.

Actually, it stays that way on individual topics. You don't have to do it every time. That's much better but will take a little getting used to.

Personally, I like the linear view better. Just looks less confusing to me.

I meant hybrid was better than threaded (to me), but I like linear as well. At least with the hybrid you can tell who replied to whom, with a little scrolling.
