This software - despite your perceptions that it lacks the bells and whistles of Facebook or MyButt such as the exalted BOZO filter is pretty damn good. It allows a user to know when he is pinged and can follow threads of discussions within posts to their ultimate end. [...] There is little or no canned forum software that does that. Been there, done that.

You're absolutely right. I really like the way FR works, and there's just nothing like out out there. I wish more forums would use their stuff (if they even make it available). One of the bigger weaknesses with canned forum software is that lack of ability to track replies on threads.

I am a member of a religious denomination forum, they have that "ignore" function but if you reply to an article and someone replies to your reply, you have to go back to the original reply to see if anyone answered you. It's a total mess and I don't waste much time there.
