I'm glad you said that Joakim. :)

I've actually been impressed with the way conversations work in Advogato's
threadless "forums"... Now, whether this is simply a matter of audience, I'm
not sure, but I feel the lack of threads lends a discipline you don't see on
slashdot, nor Gnotices (yes, good name) at the moment.

Of course, you have to be known and certified too, but how many trolls could
be bothered with their "you suck" responses in a threadless forum? :)

(Certainly whatever we have should be script-zapping and not have a "post
image" feature.)
