Can I be the first to say...
What the #@!!* has happened to the Fforum?! Has 'Nextian Chat' vanished entirely? Or is this what the 'ThursdayNext' board used to be, just that I can't tell owing to the fact that the postings are no discernible order whatsoever?
C'mon, whose fault?

Good Things* have happened to the forum. Nextian chat is still arround... but you have to be logged in to see it. And, from where I'm siting, the posts appear to be in date order.

Fair enough, I can see Nextian Chat now. The posts on this here board still aren't in order though. Date order on every other board, just not on this one. Veeeeery curious.
Yup... you're right about the dates. I have a suspicion that they are in the order that they were created... but I could be wrong. I think the problem is that the TN forum is the oldest one, and still has some hangovers from a prior version of the Phorum software... but I could be wrong.
The Thursday Next thread has always been in a weird order, it's not because of the update. All of the other threads, however, are about as organized as a bunch of people as random as us allow them to be.
