: I'd also like to make a recommendation to the users of the forum. I've been posting on newsgroups and forums for a long time now. One of the things that is typically done is that you leave the subject unchanged or only slightly modified from the original. I've noticed here as I'm reading the messages that many people are putting their entire reply right in the subject itself. I don't mean to offend anyone, especially since I'm new here. However it would make reading the forum much easier and more enjoyable than opening a message to find that the writer didn't have any more to say than what was in the subject.

It does get a bit ridiculous when people put an entire paragraph in the subject line. You might want to look for the code (nm), however. That means no message. The entire post is in the subject. That way you don't need to click to that message.
