Suggestion: Threaded & Unthreaded Views

It's not my first time on message boards/chat, so I've got a suggestion for iHub after playing around a bit.

Currently, iHub uses time stream or unthreaded display -- it shows the messages in reverse time order regardless of context.

This makes sense for a stock market discussion - you always want the latest information displayed first. I get it.

Keeping up with context is quite hard in this view, though.

What if you wanted a more Reddit style view that was threaded / topic based? Maybe time wasn't so important, more like DD.

Any new post would be a topic/thread. Any reply to a topic would be a comment to that post/topic/thread (not displayed on main list, but only as a response to the topic/post).

You'd just toggle on say 'Trader View' (default what iHub currently has) or 'Thread View' (new one I'm suggesting). They both have their purpose and most people out there using discussions these days come from 'Thread View'. Give people the option of their preferred style?
