Cannot change the number of posts per page

    Matt, could this become an adjustable setting? There are a lot fewer posts that fit on a page now than before, I need to turn to the next page more often.

    That's because this is threaded

    That's because this is threaded view, we limited the # of Forum/Topics to 10 at first.

    Guys instead of always making new topic/forum posts, instead try replying to a forum/topic.  The point of the threaded view is that it will probably change the way the blog is used overtime.  For the old blog, everyone always just made a new post.  For example, when someone asked during the day "did the SRS 15 system trigger"?  "Mine did", "mine didn't", "what does your say?"etc etc.

    Well instead of making brand new posts, my hope is that you guys just respond to original SRS post i.e. so then maybe there would end up being 30 resposes to the initial post "Did the SRS 15 min system trigger" instead of 30 brand new messages like there was before!  That's the point of this.  we limited the blog to 10 posts for now because of the threaded view, we might increase it to 15 - 20, but the threaded views make it where you are actually more than 10 pages. 

    For example, let's say there are 10 Forum/Topic posts on the first page and each topic has 5 responses to it (threaded).  Well that would mean that the page is actually displaying 50 messages instead of 10! 

    Also remember that you can see the blog like it was before, just click the (recent) link on right hand side of each forum topic; that shows the most recent posts. 

    Also regarding other features of the blog such as Edit a post, send private message, etc, those will be added back today.  We also have other things that we can add as well, but will probably move on to the other pages of the website first and then come back to the blog later.  However I'm sure Monday we will be busy fixing bugs, etc.

    That was a retorical question? In firefox, I don't like a threaded view of e-mails. Instead, I choose to view the most recent e-mail and order them by the time of its arrival. I have observed that people don't follow the subject, so categorizing postings by subject often leads to a futile attempt to impose a semblance of order, when no such order is present.

    Again, you can view non-threaded

    Again, you can view non-threaded messages by just clicking on (recent) next to the Forum Topic.
