I also find it is substantially tider than other message boards, and easier to follow conversations. There is rarely only ONE conversation going on in a given thread, and when it's all one big list, it gets confusing by page 5.

Honestly, it sounds to me like you don't like it just because it's different and might be off putting to people. IMO, if people are that off-put by something as retardedly simple as nested threads, then I'm not sure I want them here anyways
