Wanted: A way to go from thread to thread
I'm surprised no one has suggested this yet (which indicates to me there may already be a way but I just haven't figured it out), but I would really like to see a pair of buttons which can be accessed within a thread which say "Next Thread" and "Previous Thread". Coupled with the return of the blue arrows, this would really expedite our access to new postings.
Right now the way I have to go from thread to thread is via the "Back" button to the main subtopic index (e.g., "United"), then click on the link to the next (or previous) topic. This requires two loadings, and often takes quite a bit of time.
By the way - AM I missing something?

Counsellor ~ What I do to avoid the two loadings you describe is to right click on the subtopic I want (like United) and select open a new window. Then I read whatever interests me in United, then close the window and select the next subtopic from the main page which is still open.
This also allows me to skip subtopics that don't interest me or I don't have time to read.

IT WORKS! IT WORKS! If you open each individual conversation (thread) in a separate window by right-clicking, it cuts waiting time to virtually nothing going between conversations.
AND, the forum light bulbs stay lit that way!
Thank you, Beckles; thank you, thank you, thank you!
