The infinite scroll is easily disabled by unchecking it under Thread Display Options in My FlyerTalk.

Yes, I followed those steps and disabled it. But I am curious why this feature was made the default when all it did was drive people like me away from the site for years..

I understand you don't care for it. Neither do I. But these decisions are based purely on analyitics data, not meant to put anyone off.

For users such as myself, who access FlyerTalk almost exclusively on an Android cell phone, infinite scroll has been a very useful feature indeed.
