I do share your frustration, but if the new, slower and much more inefficient
way to navigate through the forum threads really will attract new users, I will
not stand in its way. I'll give it some time and hope for improvements that will
hopefully make it almost as user-friends and easy to browse as LUGNET is.

(Btw, IMO Swebricks or whatever it is called is as user-hostile as the forum at
ldraw.org.)
