But that's the funny part. The ENTIRE basis of your argument is that you are correct because you say so.
All you have to do is show your "overwhelming evidence," and "you win."
And when you do bring your evidence, bring the part that says flat mode "is better."
This was never about what's more popular; your original point is that flat mode is more practical to use:

I just figured out what started all of this. When italie started crying about me using "." in the subject line. It set her off because it's that time of month for her. That's why she didn't want me to use periods in the subject. Try a Midol, ok sweetie?

Who needs evidence? How many forums on the entire internet use a 'Flat' scheme in their topic bodies? (eta: by default)
Don't answer that. Because nobody can without doing an unreasonable amount of research. So the only answers one could give would be either "More forums use a 'Flat' scheme" or "More forums use a 'threaded' scheme."
Honestly. Which do you think is the right answer?
And presuming you'd say it's 'Flat', the next question would be "Why is that?" to which the only sensible answer would be "because it's easier to use".
But my hats off to anyone that actually can use it and has the patience to keep scrolling down, look for the next reply amongst all the others in the list, click it, wait the few seconds it takes to load, rinse, repeat....
eta: I know. How dare I bring this topic back on track, just when it was getting fun. I had to go and get all serious and proper.

Well... that's my business model; easier to update on my part; keeps the bandwidth down on the host.
And since I'm doing it that way, it must be what my customer base wants, right?

I would never hurt you. I've been protecting people like you my whole life. See, I was part of the "Cool/Popular" kids in highschool, and I was that one good kid out of that group that was friendly with the so called "nerds". So I would always protect them and make sure they didn't get picked on alot. So don't worry, I got your back.

WOW you are a sad,silly human being.When do you actually play games?you spend so much time on this forum picking petty,PETTY fights with people.Let me guess.You arent very social,or very popular with the opposite sex,so you vent your frustrations on the internet.

You haven't been reading close enough....he was in the popular crowd in high school. We should all be lucky enough that he's even acknowledging our existence.
Oh, and his house guests agree with him. And the rest of the internet does too.

You know OSG I do envy you.I too wish I had enough free time to pick petty fights on a internet forum.I know I know im a kiss A$$,a MAMEdev worshipper! Although its you that posts all the questions,spends all the time in the forum,puts all his favorite obscure arcade games in his sig,and goes on and on over the game "NEMO" which,truth be told,isnt very good.

Anyone who claims they were part of the popular\cool kids in HS,on a internet forum,about 20+ years after leaving HS,clearly is lying.Thats MY opinion,so its true.
BTW,people chime in to threads and disagree with you because you are a offensive,unlikable person.But im sure you are told that no matter where you go.

You're the only person here that has not added ANY FACTS to his argument, but that just happens to be one of your arguments?
Do you know the meaning of the word FACT? Have you taken a world-wide pole, have proof that 100% of internet users answered said poll, and 90% of them prefer flat mode? NO. You have no efing clue what you are talking about. Your only argument in this entire thread is that your reasoning skills are superior and the basis of fact. ummm... a fact would be that Threaded mode is clearly winning the poll that was made in another thread. Just sayin'
And another retort... the sky is NOT blue, you idiot. Your eyes PERCIEVE blue on a CLEAR day because shorter wavelengths of light (blues and violets) get scattered around and absorbed by the liquid and gas molecules in our atmosphere. The scattering is why the whole sky looks that way. And if you're in an area that allows you to see the horizon a good 6+ miles away, you'll notice that the sky starts turning a much more pale, blue color or even white. That's because over a longer distance those blue wavelengths are scattered more and more and not enough of them can make it from there to your precious little retinas.
Anyway... the sky doesn't have color. It's clear, dude. That's why, ya know... you can see stars and stuff at night
