Go to Post I think we need a little more humour injected into topics such as these to diffuse whatever tension has been created by the original discussion threads. - Travis Hoffman [more]

I'm not saying it's definietly going to happen, I just want to know everybodies position.

Me? I like threaded, but most users in the linear view reply to the thread and not indivual posts within the thread, causing weird branches to spawn out of the middle (usually the bottom of the first linear page) and make threaded a game of searching the thread for little weird branches that pop out.

So, I wouldn't mind if threaded went away, just because it would make things a tad easier. I wish threaded would work, but I just don't know if it's possible to have multiple modes and make them all work independently.

I hate threaded mode. Slashdot's threaded mode is the bane of my existence.

Long live linear.
