Subject: RE: BS: Who does it better than Mudcat?
Just remembered something else I wished to comment on earlier.

Russ, I quite like paging but I perhaps view it differently to you. I view it as a means of getting a page to download in a reasonable time rather than an alternative to scrolling down. It is in fact another feature I would like to see added at Mudcat as I would prefer to page rather than wait to see a thread reach 100 posts, slow down (particularly for those of us with slow connections) and then see part II and more created which to me is disjointed and relies on the co-operation (and observation) of others.

My own feeling is that the setting of an appropriate page size would be the real key. A page size of say 75 would probably work fine here and most threads would be unaffected by it.
