Don't know if you are looking at any more suggestions, but I looked at the sticky's and there doesn't seem to be any up there at the moment. It just came to mind that an option to read only posts by specific users at the top of the thread would be very usefull. Like a drop menu. Also, a quote feature for each post would be usefull too. They do that on another messageboard that I use, and I like it a lot more than the clicking post number thing. You can also respond to a number of separate posts at once.

I think the quote thing would be neat and wouldn't get in the way of the mnmlsm. I don't like bolding and italicizing.

What, having to make a separate reply to every person you want to respond to is simpler than one reply to many?

The messageboard I am talking about is em411.com
To open up the menu that allows you to quote people, you have to click on a little plus icon on the top of the post. Once you press that, it allows you to do things like quote, mark messages as useless so the trolling messages get minimized, and edit your own threads. The marking as useless mixed with the edit function acts as a perfect example of empowering a community to moderate itself, instead of making the threads hardwired, and expecting the members to act like idiots.

These three messages could have been compressed into one. Its more efficient to quote.
