Are not great at replying to people. It’s not clear who is relying to who and the reply can appear several pages later.

I hated the CB format at first. Now I think it’s clearly the best for these kinds of discussions

I hate the formats where sub threads aren’t easily followable. Responses to a post can be spread throughout the topic

Message boards are stupid and a waste of time. I only know CB for this reason.

CB format is simply stream of consciousness. Much easier to read the latest

I hated CB when I first came over from Cougarfan. It took some time to adjust.

I like CB format best, just wish I didn't have to load a new page to read most
