Looking over this discussion, I realize that I never look at the thread list at all, ever. I am Read New's bitch.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I am Read New's bitch.
Me too. And I LOVE that at the end of Read New, it puts you right at your message center.

I don't use read new much cause I like to decide which thread I read next. t /end control issues And I don't thnk suggesting improvments in any way denigrates the fabulous work that has already been done. I mean that is what this section is for. Possibly it is because I'm in the field myself. But generally a piece of software is a evolving entity. There will always be new suggestions regardless of how much is done. It is not like building a car or writing a work of fiction ( except maybe a textbook where there is always a new edition coming out). Hey we waited until the second day it was live before suggesting improvements. :)

I'm sorry if anything I said implied that you were denigrating -- for my part, I find it interesting that people perceive and use even a fairly simple, clean interface so differently.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.
As is, this board swings like a pendulum do!

I love it ,too. My only quibble with read new is that I wish it would stay in a thread until you've read all the posts in the thread, rather than jumping around each time you click. But then I suppose it wouldn't actually be Read New. :)

And (not accusing anyone of suggesting this) suggesting improvements NE complaints.
I would love this board if it stayed in this exact form forever. It is already superior to the WX in all it's incarnations, including TT and PF.
But that does not mean if I see a way to make it better I won't suggest them.
And, since I'm pretty good at PHP, perhaps help implement them.
