Post about fandom! Or whatever! Whether it's a rave about some obscure series, or an essay dissecting every last reason why some internet-famous author should rethink their career, someone will probably read it at some point! We also just chat about life.

yeah this style of board uses that ambiguity; it lets people separate details that they fear might identify them if they put them all together. on the other hand if you get a bunch of replies, they might all be from the same person, so it'd be a bad way to establish popular opinion.

> At first glance this was a rather intimidating list to spelunk through. The only hope I had of retaining some semblance of organization was by going directly to the masterpost and pressing the "Flat" button.

yeah, I like reading through the threads afterwards sometimes, but I'm always reading in flat view myself unless I want to post something.

It also allows one to seriously wind up the sensitive, if one is slightly trollish, by impersonating people or carrying out both parts of a conversation, for example. But I don’t think anyone would do that for evil here, rather than silliness, because we’re all too even-keeled to get wound up.

Flat view 4 life.

I love flat view. I use the threads if I'm looking for, say, the venting thread because I need to vent about something, but most of the time I'm team flat view.
