for me the few times I need a web viewer.
Oh, I keep forgetting this one exists!
Can we get this linked from the main newsgroups page at least?
A threaded view is a must have :)
Change the ordering to ByParent in the url, though I haven't adjusted the
stylesheet
to include proper spacing for that.
Either that's not working, it's not what I want or the stylesheet thing
is getting in the way.
It puzzles me how people actually like that view though! I hate threaded
views with a passion.
Do you actually enjoy having to guess what something is in reply to? Or
how about the fun you can have trying to locate replies to a given post?
Or what about when one branch of a thread goes off on a interesting
tangent and another dives down a rabbit hole you couldn't care less about?
Unless you plan on reading *everything* (and when things get
interesting, that is just flat impossible, even if you don't have a
job), the most important information is virtually invisible in anything
but a threaded view.
