But no matter your PPP, you only get the unread posts in a thread, I think, right?
Question: Will hiding in a cavern with stockpiled chocolate goods be any part of this plan?

If you have unread posts. It's when I want to go back to a thread I've read, to post in it, that I'm getting into changing my PPP so often.
Edit to add: Big number!

This board fails to correct or delete posts that are just plain stupid. I can't help feeling that's a flaw.

It also continues to show posts by people who are drunk, Angus.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Uh. I've got my permanently set to 20, and just went to Sunnydale Press, where there were no unread messages, and I got only the one most recent message. It didn't try to display 20.
I'm confused-- is that what you were talking about?

If you choose 20, 20 is your maximum page size. If there were 20 or more unread posts you would get 20. If there were fewer than 20 unread posts then you get that number.
If you hit recent you get the most recent 20 post. (Clicking on a thread where you have read everything is the same as hitting recent. Clicking on a thread with unread posts gives you those posts)
If you hit previous and there are more than 20 prior posts, you get the previous 20 posts. If you hit next and there are 20 or more posts remaining after the last one on your current page you get 20. And so on.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
If I have a thread with no unread posts and I click it, sometimes it'll give me just the last post, and sometimes it'll give me the last 10.
t edit: OK, it looks like clicking regular threads will give me the last 10, while clicking threads in the right column will give me the last 1.

Oh. Interesting. 'Cause I'd gone to SP, of course. I wonder, why is that so?
