A "Thread" on a message board is generally considered as one post, and all
the responses to that post (As I understand it). I would think something
along the lines of...
100 (Message number, first post in a thread)
100.1 - First reply
100.2 - Second Reply
100.2.1 - First reply to second reply
100.2.1.1 - Next sub reply
100.2.2 - Second reply to second reply
100.3 - Third reply
Maybe something like that?
