New Re: Can't help, but welcome back Rich!
I can't believe it's been over a year since I last stopped by. :-)

Is there an nntp interface for these forums yet? ;-)

New Our admin has some treats in store.
e.g. [link|http://z.iwethey.org/forums/render/content/show?contentid=258516|#258516]. An NNTP interface was on the wishlist a few years ago, but I don't know if that's as high on the list now. It was [link|http://z.iwethey.org/forums/SourceCode/TODO|last] on the list before. ;-)

I fear that he needs to be in an Intel TV commercial so that he's cloned a few times before the Holy Grail of Forum Software is done, though. :-)

Cheers,
Scott.
(Who's not complaining! And who thinks that girl in the Intel ad is a little scary.)
New Re: Our admin has some treats in store.
Even a way to treat these forums as a series of individual e-mails (like Yahoo Groups can do) would be useful. I could treat 'em as pseudo-newsgroups in Yarn, then. :-)

(Yes, I still use Yarn under OS/2 for all my nntp and smtp/pop messaging -- I'm stuck in a time warp, I s'pose, but 1996 was a fairly good year for both hardware and software).

New Do what Ben did on the old IWE boards
Make yourself a frameset with some javascript in the navigation pane. All you need is 'next' and 'previous'. All posts are sequentially numbered. Might even be able to do a greasemonkey script and do it right in the page.

Except that the post ID space may be shared across multiple boards. Is that true?

New Re: Do what Ben did on the old IWE boards
It's not that the interface here is inconvenient, it's just that I like folding as many discussions as I possibly can into my more centralized mail/newsreader setup. I'm even getting a few Fido echos back on my plate again, albeit slowly. :-)
