    confused by pages and results

    Hey, I am getting confused by pages and results sometimes.


    I have a thread I started here:
    http://www.sawmillcreek.org/showthre...-too-difficult

    There are 18 replies, but its only showing 15. In the weird thread view, it says "more replied below current depth". I dont understand this. Actually what I don't understand is why there is no page 2 button, I have to click "more replies below current depth".


    Every other thread I view, if it has more than 15 posts, it gets a page 2. Why does my thread not have a page 2?

    Also another bizzare thing happened. A thread called "Track Saws..." was on my 1st page of general goodworking. I replied. I didn't check before replying, but now it looks like the last post behind mine was 2 weeks ago. ?!?!? Thats not possible since the thread was bumped near the top when I clicked it... any idea whats going on?

    ah, thanks. I didn't even know there was such a thing. been using forums for years and never heard of it... cant see the point in hybrid mode to be honest

    now if I could just figure out how to make it automatically subscribe me to every thread I post in. I have scoured the user setting over and over and I just cannot find it. Can I set it to email me when there are replies?

    Ryan, glad you got it straightened out. I never understood why some people like the hybrid mode either. Maybe it’s a holdover from the early forum days.
