It'd actually be easier if there were a threaded mode on the board that was worth anything. Right now, it's either ``threaded'', which mean that you can see the thread structure, but only one post at a time, or ``flat'', which shows all the posts, but no thread structure. There also needs to be an ``exploded'' mode, which would have indentations (or something) to show thread structure, but also show all the posts on the same page. That way, it would be easy to skip subthreads that don't interest you, but still read the borad quickly.
