I prefer flat, since you get all the information of threaded (or mostly, from the subject line) without having to click through a million replies. I do more reading than posting, so it makes it easier to absorb information, where I might miss some if I had to click on each reply individually.

FLAT

I prefer flat for both the General Discussion index page as well as for reading individual posts.

With thread view on the General Discussion index page I have to scroll down to dozens of replies to threads I am not interested in. In flat view I can simply see many threads at once and click on the few I am interested in.

With thread view for reading a post I am interested in, I have to click on each response. Since I already know I want to read the thread, the flat view allows me to read through the posts and see the photos simply by scrolling down, not clicking one link at a time.

I think it is great that both options are offered, as sometime when reading an individual thread I may only be interested in posts from specific members, and I can see if they have posted or not. However, that is fairly rare. I find FLAT works best for me overall.

Flat. I would also wish the bump up feature was default. That way it would be nicer to read without logging in always. Especially for project blogs it is must!

if you look in the right top corner, you will see a button that is either Flat or Threaded. Click on it a couple times to see the differences.

Strange?
I do not see it?
All I see is:
"Hi, jonny
Logout"

Below that is:
"Site Search"

I'm in Firefox...perhaps IE would display it?

Edit: Nope...Internet Explorer doesn't show it either.
