I find myself wishing the old system were still in place. The "topic" of each thread allowed us to screen out topics in which we may have had little or no interest without needing to re-open the now only thread and see if the topic under discussion interests us.
I also miss some of our fellow forum members who, it seems to me, posted much more frequently than they do now. I believe I post less frequently in the political thread now...don't keep any hard data to prove it, just feels that way.
Cheers...and thanks for all you and the mod's do to keep this forum running so smooth!
