We have even fought hard to defend your privacy in legal cases; however, we've done it with almost no financial support -- paying out of pocket to continue providing the service. Due to the issues imposed on us by advertisers, we also stopped hosting most ads on the forums many years ago. We hope you appreciate our efforts.

In order to achieve this, please reply to the main message ONLY, even if you want to reply to a reply. [ Next Thread \| Previous Thread \| Next Message \| Previous Message ]

Author: Paul [ Edit \| View ]	Date Posted: 13:06:59 07/05/02 Fri In order to facilitate this concept, I have changed the listing format of the forum. Just go to the bottom of the page, type your reply and send. That it.

Author: Ashley [ Edit \| View ]	Date Posted: 13:52:32 07/05/02 Fri I would suggest you to change back to "Compact" format (with table) rather than "Super-compact" format. With "Super-compact" format, you have no way to tell whether there are new messages in a certain thread. You don't expect everyone to click into every thread everytime they visit the forum to check for new messages, do you?

Author: Ashley [ Edit \| View ]	Date Posted: 14:22:32 07/05/02 Fri Thanks. I like the current format better. If everyone replies to the main message then we will have a neatly arranged list in chronological order for each thread which allows us to spot new messages in a thread right away.

Author: Lam [ Edit \| View ]	Date Posted: 14:24:04 07/05/02 Fri One more thing, is it possible to disable the sub-message, i.e. so that they can be viewed but cannot be clicked.

Author: Paul [ Edit \| View ]	Date Posted: 14:45:43 07/05/02 Fri Lam, I don't think so. I can only disable reply to ALL message, but connot limit only sub-message.
