I've always been in favor of keeping it the way it was also. It didn't take long to skim through the headers to find the information that you want. With it this way there is the chance of missing good information unless you go into each forum and check it.

I'm willing to give this a try for a while and see how it goes and see how the members like it. Nothing says that it has to remain the way it is. We'll adapt and run things to accommodate the majority of members.
