Subjects.

Is there a way to just browse topics without having to use the search button for something specific? Sometimes when I get to the bottom of the page, I wonder, "Is that all there is?"

Thanks, John, but that's just one at a time and ones I've seen in the last few days.

You have to click the PREV button from the main forum page

Then it will show you the entire previous page of messages.

Click "First" button - that will take you back to the beginning of time. Then page forward a page at a time. If nothing else, a great time waster that is greatly informative.

Thanks, everyone. That is what I needed, jba. Thanks. I won't read it all at the same sitting, though.

Thanks Julie, I'm going to be up all night now reading. I never touch those buttons to see what they are as I don't play around much on NR. (ahem!)

I recall 3, 4, 5 years ago reading this board and was so overwhelmed trying to catch up on just the current stuff I never had time to post. The good ol' days...

A few tips as I was doing this today and had forgotten

When you click on message in a thread, after you read it you have to hit the back arrow at the top left of page. If you hit return to forum button, it brings you to the most recent post. A bit squirrelly if you as me, but that quirk exists.

You will see lots of Anonymous, whether they are one and the same is debatable. Some have changed their names - one surprised me today when I saw it, but was the beginning of her career here I think. You will see some oldies that are still around today. Lots of treasures, some great lively discussions with some that devolved.

Have fun -

Just read the first thread. Funny stuff but gotta run.

If this is going to read like a novel I will just guess that the Butler did it! Or Carrie...
