I am not sure if this has been answered before. I'll try to back read. But with regards to "Threads". I think nakakagulo yung may Thread 1, Thread 2, and so on. For somebody who wants to do research, medyo mahirap yung isearch ko pa kung san nagsimula yung discussion.
Classic example I got just now:
Hi sissies.. I cant find thread 1.. What is Dr. Cohen's First Personal Diet? 
Unlike sa Pinoyexchange. For instance, HONGKONG. There's only one thread so kahit na 500 pages na sha, its easier to go through. Pardon me if this query was answered before.
