Now these things simply can't be done with Web Forums. 99% of them have linear views (think Gmail layout here) or hierarchies (of whole messages), and not just a hierarchy of titles. So you scroll and scroll and scroll and scroll and scroll.....ZZZZzzzzz... Oh, and then each new topic needs to be clicked and whole web pages need to be reloaded, with MB's of images and JavaScript etc, and that is so damn slow compared to NNTP clients which just pulls the actual message when you need it. I have a 60Mb fibre optic internet connection, and I still think web forums are slow!
I definitely agree regarding web forums. :) Regards, Sven _______________________________________________ fpc-other maillist - fpc-other@lists.freepascal.org http://lists.freepascal.org/mailman/listinfo/fpc-other
