to me, its not a big issue, just one more pie on a pile of cow shit...It screws with the continuity of discussions which just plain sucks. My biggest gripe is the failure of the search function. I don't want to fight with a textbox, I want to type what I want and get a result...Also the lack of support from fusetalk over the years is frustrating. If I had to fight with a vendor so hard to get something fixed and after months (if not years) the problem still exists I'd have thrown them on their ass a LONG time ago.

If it happened more often in the tech forums, it would bother me. Here in the free for all that is OT, it is usually quite amusing.
I found it amusing at first but now it really irritates me.
It's mostly the OP not being the first post that annoys me. I scan the OP and decide whether to continue reading or not, then I realize it makes no effing sense and I gotta decide whether it's the poster who makes no sense (which is no rare occurrence) or if its a time warp.

Why did they start happening in the past year or so? I remember when I was in college 2004-2006 the forums seemed to function great. That was when I racked up my 4000 posts.
Although in just the past day or so I seem to have to close and open my browser to get a reply done. (it just stalls at times... well about 75% of the time)

I think he faked a timewarp of his own thread, and hoped that someone would quote his OP (which Crono did).
It's frustrating, in that a forum software's most basic aspect should be the ability to show posts in the order they come in. It's a pretty major flaw given the software it is appearing in. In some threads, it creates funny situations, however in other's it just creates a clusterfuck.
It should be fixable and fixed by now by any software standards. I don't know what that says about me, however I deal with application issues on a regular basis and perhaps I'm just projecting the requirements that are pushed on me on a regular basis.

I thought he was trying to make it seem as time warp took place and drive the OCDers insane looking for the actual OP.
