    Hello,

    I use these forums extensively.

    When I reply to a post and receive replies back to the same person more than say three or four times for the same thread, the posts move to the right on the screen and they get very narrow.  They are still readable, but it is very annoying.

    Is there a way to keep that from happening?

    Thanks,
    Tony

    Hi Tony,

    You can switch your thread display view from threaded to flat. You can make this change in 'My settings' from the 'Quick access' dropdown in the upper left.

    There are also drawbacks to this view, as you need to rely on people quoting the posts they're responding to.

    Thanks Mike.  That works much better.
