As posts seem to sink to the second page so fast now, we are thinking of making so 50 threads per page are displayed.
I'd like to know what you all thought?

Great Idea. I don't think a lot of people read the threads if they are not on the first page. This would help.
hmm... as long as it doesn't take longer to load and the boards don't go slower, i'm all up for it.
We might trial it for a while and see how it goes, If performance degrades we will have to change it back. Should now be 50 threads a page, please let me know what you think.
sweet. how many was it before? will this be for all forums? :)
question here scills:
on the other forums, there are only like 8 threads at view at one time. That's fine but i don't see a page 1 2 3 ... link on the bottom. are they being deleted??

hey scills.
just noticed that on some threads with several images like the one we have going in cl took forever to load on a cable modem. i didn't realize you were speaking about posts in a thread i thought you were speaking about threads per page in a forum. that would really help. get to see more threads per page.
:)
No, you have a setting that prolly says on display the last days posts, to see all of them use show all threads in your profile I thinkQuote:

Thanks Scills...

I was using that new math :)
That's great! Now it will take even longer for my posts to sink to the bottom with no replies.:D
We've been having "funny" problems with the board server even under no load, we are working on it as usual.
Lets see how 50 threads per page goes for a few days, it is easy to trim it back if we need to, so if you think it is too slow, too big or not good, please let me know.
I have to give that 2 big thumbs down, WAAAAAYYYYYYYY down
For people on a fast computer and have good connection, maybe, but most poeple are on 56k and less, the page will take very long to load, espessally with the footers and sometimes pictures.
Right now im on my P3 with cable, and i would like 50 page threads, but, im also on a network, i have a comp in my room, and i usally use that one, and it is way slower, I have a 233 mhz with cable modem... but feels slow, My comp cant handle the 50 pages that well, will be very choppy, even with the 20 threads or something its slow for me, just imagine for the 56k'ers, and the 36k'ers and even less. Lets keep it the way it is, and leave it that way.
Good feedback, as I said it is a trial. I'd like to hear from some modem users too.
Actually I'm on a 56k and I notice no slowing down what so ever. We need to give it a fair chance.
Well, I was on a 56k recently, with a P2 400 i think, and it was at 15 posts per page, and it was choppy, and slow, i left the board, because it was way to slow, took a while to load the board, then posting back was terrible, dont make the 56kers pay!!!!! You guys will loose people
Well the key word here is "recently". Yesterday this board was slow as molasses, but right now it's fine. I will say that if it does get to slow again you WILL lose people as OKjoe has pointed out. We need more people with 56k to vote on this.Quote:
