The NNTP and mailing list interfaces predate the web interface by quite a bit. The web interface was added primarily as a means of making it easier for more casual folks to comment. Those who wish to use it as their primary interface to the newsgroup are free to do so, but anyone looking for the feature set of the web interface to change needs to understand that the web interface is just one interface to an NNTP server and not your typical forum software. - Jonathan M Davis
