Forum thead / post nesting?

Thank you for your participation and interest in the Mises Community. This software platform has seen its day, however, and so is now closed. We are redoing our entire site, so look for some exciting developments by the end of the year. Thank you for your support of Austrian economics, liberty, and peace.

Hi,

I'm new on the forum.  It appears the threads don't have nesting capability, is that correct?  (perhaps it's my browser, or some setting I'm missing).

If not - is there any way to get this added?  It's very difficult to have conversations amongst multiple posters otherwise - someone will post a reply to a point made, but since it's not nested below that post, it's often hard to tell what it's a reply to (especially when many other unrelated replies exist in the middle).

Thanks.

I think the framework of the forum is quite different from the one needed for nesting. I find that nesting prevents you from reading alternative ideas. To make sure you are replying to the correct person, you can quote them:

Like so ^
