I think everybody liked what you did with JT's post bout his meet...splitting it up into two pages.
I've seen this on most every web board I've been to in the past few years. Is there any way to set up the board to split into extra pages automatically after 20 or so posts?

One reason we have never done it before is fear readers may not read all the posts and miss something. If that's what you guys prefer, I'm sure we can at least give it a try and see what everyone thinks.

I think 20 posts or so is where we dial up users start feeling the pain. and...
lot of folks don't read all the thread posts before replying as it is (I imagine some have already skipped over some of the posts on THIS thread), so I don't think that will be much of a factor.
jimmy, thanks....JT's the singer, right? and I'm fairly sure that RT don't sing...and if he does, he should stop.

This was something I would have like to had available a few weeks ago. Now with the “Jump to new Post” shortcut, for me anyway, it’s not such a big deal. A imagine a real benefit for those on dial-ups though. Taking the “average” amount of replies into account, 20 doesn’t appear to be a bad choice.
And Mr. Mayor, rest assured, that even when “I” do read every post in a thread, I don’t necessarily r - e - a - d what is written. Looking at some other’s responses and assumptions over the months and years, I believe there is plenty of company in that catagory I’m trying to get better at that…
Hey Mr. Adobe-man, if you used a real computer it would download faster

Don't know why I felt like putting my 2 cents in ,but my right brain likes it all connected, and the scroll bar is the way to go. I hate having to stop while I am on a roll, for what it's worth. I like it where it's always been.
