Idea: posts per page

[dinger]

is there a reason for only having 15 post per page? is it easier on the server or something technical like that i wont understand?

i was just thinking, i kind of get annoyed having to click next page 6 times for some threads. even 25 posts per page would help this. nothing major, but the site is nearly perfect so its time to get nit picky.

You can change it...once I figure out how again...

Go to your User CP, click Edit Options, scroll toward the bottom page, from the drop down menu in Number of Posts to Show Per Page, select 20, 30, or 40.

are there any benefits to keeping it at 15?

In theory the pages should load a little faster

It truly is a user preference. I like to have it set at more than 15 so I don't have to keep clicking through the pages, but I suppose if you are on a slow connection, loading more posts per page could take a while and get annoying.

There are two benefits for us keeping the default to 15...

1 - Each page load takes less resources on the server. With millions of page views each month, small things add up fast.

2 - Ad revenue that pays to keep the site going:wink:

So when I'm bored out of my mind and keep clicking refresh I'm generating revenue?
