because they're an absolute clusterfuck
That's hilarious. The current quoting system is the definition of a clusterfuck.
So are subthreads. At least with this style it's easy to tell who's talking to who.
I've lost count of the amount of times I've had someone think I was talking to them because of how shitty subthreads are.

If subthreads get your dick so hard why don't you just use Bnet instead of wanting this place to become Bnet?
I don't give a shit how this site turns out. It just blows my mind that people could prefer this over something clearly superior. And I didn't think it needed to be said, but I don't base which site I spend my time on on whether it has subthreads or not ( and I use both anyway).
>something superior
>clusterfuck

It's not superior at all. All it did was result in endless scrolling and people getting confused over who is talking to who. The current system is fine; you can clearly see who is talking to who, and isn't an endless page.
Clusterfuck by your definition, and even then you didn't have any objections when I called this system a clusterfuck, just that it was less of a clusterfuck
And "endless scrolling"? You're merging subthreads and single page threads into one thing.

Clusterfuck by your definition
>"i don't understand why people don't like something "superior" over this clusterfuck"
>subthreads are a clusterfuck
>"b-but that's just your opinion"

lmao get the fuck out of here. The current system is a clusterfuck by your definition.
See how this works?

Yes, endless scrolling.
Did you ever go into a large thread? Fucking impossible to navigate and find anything because it's just a single page of comments.

Yes, because you presented your comment like
">superior
>clusterfuck"
as if both were quoting me. Like you were implying I contradicted myself.

What does this have to do with subthreads? If you click "oldest first" on the thread it organises it into pages with subthreads. One page threads and subthreads aren't inseparable.

Sick humour, no respect.

well why is it a bad idea? It would organize the threads and reduce the amount of scrolling you'd have to do through threads.
people just like b.old's style more

that was the whole reason behind having offsites like this

because we hated bnet's update so much

so, it would be silly to make ourselves look more like bnet
why not just go back to bnet at that point?
Well that's just not being like b.net for the sake of not being like b.net. I don't know how anyone can support having pages of quotes of a conversation between two people over having the thread organised nicely and being easy to read.
Everyone always harps on about how this place is an entirely different site to bungie.net. Why not let it be its own site then? i.e NOT being deliberately like or unlike bungie.net.
It's not like B.old for the sake of it. People don't want sub-threads because they don't like it on B.new.

Not a hard concept to grasp.
I was responding to Verb, who was clearly saying "no, because that would make us be like bungie.net". And I already expressed my confusion as to why someone wouldn't like subthreads. "Because they don't like it" doesn't clear anything up.
People not wanting it because they don't like it is a perfectly viable reason to not have it.
no it's not actually. A lot of things happen for the greater good whether people like it or not.

That would imply subthreads are "the greater good".

they're not
