Tell me what happens when I post and I have to View ALL?

[clydefrand]

I used to be able to post and my post would come up and I could see others' posts above mine. Not any more. It's a pain in the arse to have to click "View All" each time to see the other posts now.

What to do? What to do?

1. This seems to have started

when their were some fixes done a couple of weeks ago. Maybe some people like it like this, so they can view their post. I find it really annoying though.

2. WEll, now we can click "my posts" on every page

so....You win some, you lose some...

3. Yes, I like that. n/t

4. It's the number of replies.

Once the # of replies hits 20, or something, then the thread collapses to just subject lines.
You can click on an individual line, or click on View Alll to read all the replies.

5. Nope.

I can have only one reply to a thread I start and it will have View All on it. While for some others, there can be 20, 40, 50 or more replies and for me there is no View All involved.

I find it a major pain. The original intent was for dial up. I wish this bug, flaw, whatever would be fixed.

6. Not how it works for me.

When i look at the forum page for Lounge, all posts with 20 or more replies have View All next to the subject line.
Those with less than 20 don't.

7. I think the poster is referring to the thread itself

After you've posted to a thread, only your post shows. I'm not absolutely sure this is a change from before, but it might be.

8. hmmm...let's see...

OK, now I see what you mean.
Hadn't noticed.
