Threads, OK, but individual posts?

Yes, but for me, anyway, it's not clicking per se, but searching for where to click, that takes time. If they're all on the same page, don't you still need to click to scroll through them? Unless you have a mouse with wheels?

You can save your cookie on the server (log on and off) to make that easier:

> Boards like Psyke (and others) sometimes have sections that only members with a certain amount of posts can access/see - that makes people feel more confident about posting very personal things on a very public board.

Because they trust people who've posted a lot even if they still don't know who they are?
