In Response To: Forum Message Structure (RobertFontaine)

Everyone's preference will be different.

I have my preferences set to List Style = Simple List.

That shows every post to the forum, most recent on top. You lose the benefit of seeing the organized discussion threads and which posts are responses to which other posts, but I don't really miss it. However, I am guaranteed that no matter how old a discussion is, I will always see any new posts to the thread right on top of my screen.

Since the display shows "new" posts, I am usually able to start with the oldest "new" post to find the point I left off and then scan forward in time for subjects that interest me.
