    Threaded display/Quick Reply

    I believe most, if not nearly all, members use the modern, linear mode in displaying threads instead of the threaded or hybrid modes; but I could be wrong. The existence of the Quick Reply box at the bottom of a thread means that when members don’t use one of the Reply buttons below each post, there is no threading maintained as the software can’t tell to which post you are responding. Now, if people like threading, I could remove the Quick Reply box and only have it appear after one of the Reply buttons is clicked. This would maintain threading which would display if you use threaded mode. The downside is that those people using threaded mode and do not quote may not realize that users that use linear mode may not know to what post they are responding.

    Thoughts?

    I find threaded mode to be a pain. Even with proper controls, people don't always respond within the correct thread anyway. I use the linear mode.
