Hi Margee good point..I just wonder how many people DO trawl all the way through a Thread..without knowing the "Post Date" facility..and another point to consider is that a lot of Threads, many of the older ones, have long term followers who come back time and again..and like to see a continuity in the results they achieve..

Are you saying that it would take less time to look through 2 threads of 50 posts each than 1 thread with 100 posts?

You know you can always click on "Post date" to see latest ones first.

Hi Dizzi,

Hope you are ok

I think that would take just as long, in fact maybe longer as you may have to find the various threads and then remember which ones that you'd already ready.
