Any chance at increasing the "posts per page limit"

[Grind]

I'm a major political forum junkie and quite honestly I find it preferable to have 100 posts per page as a display option. It's just easier to read through a whole thread by quickly scanning through it, and it's good to have the discussion mostly all in one place.

I know it would be relatively easy to implement, and it's simply an option, so anyone that doesn't like it, obviously wouldn't have to choose it.

Food for thought

Probably doable, but I would argue against it.

For selfish reasons, my net connection sucks and if I had to wait for 100 posts per page load, I might as well quit the site. It's next to impossible at times now.

I know what ya mean, grind. I use 40 posts per page - the maximum we can get. Next time Admin is around, I'll ask him if you wish.

We have 5, 10, 20, 30, 40 at this time.

Yeah - forgot about that, you can select the number.

$#@! it - max it out if possible, I'll just stick with the current format - as long as it's still optional.

The posts per page limit has been expanded to 100. For those on slower connections, I have also added a 3 post option. The forum default is 20.

Probably doable, but I would argue against it.

Each individual use may choose his or her options. The posts per page limit can be set by selecting "Settings" from the top right of your main screen, and then "General Settings" under the My Account header in the left hand sidebar. Scroll down to "Thread Display Options" and choose your preference.

The 100 post per page option increases server load, but I believe we are currently managing resources quite well. If members experience a slowdown, please alert me.

We also have plans to add a mobile forum template. This will allow members to access our forums with a minimum of bandwidth consumption, regardless of whether they are on mobile devices or slower connections.

Yay cool!!!! I'm going to 100 now.

Thanks ADMIN!

well as i said, it would be an option in your settings. right now you can choose 10, 20, 40 per page. so if you didn't want to load 100 per page you wouldn't have too.

What about Moderators looking at Topics and limiting any that include the words Romney , Obama and Liberal and Republican to a max of 10 in total ?
What about putting said Topics into their sensible spots -- not World Affairs . I recommend , "Pub" but you stick in the muds will not be impressed .
