Discussion Group Setup
 

I have been using discussion groups for a long time. I have noticed that
some of the other boards I use will use the last post in the thread as an
organizing factor for the board. If MS did this, it woule eliminate
duplicate posts and allof for follow up questions to be answered rather than
creating a new post.

For example: If I am looking through the boards and find a post from a year
ago and reply to it to see how something worked or ask a similar question,
this post and thread would be at the top of the list.

Whad does everybodt think?

Discussion Group Setup
 

This is a USENET newsgroup not one of those "forum system softwares".
