"La, la, la, I'm Not Listening"
Hi Percy,
Whilst I can see that this is another excellent thing to have as part of your board software package, I do see one problem. Creationists already have an unfortunate habit of sticking their fingers in their ears and singing "la, la, I'm not listening" when confronted with anything they don't want to hear. A technological fix that allows them to do this more effectively isn't going to help them understand anything any better.
I seem to be pouring cold water on your latest adjustments. In fact, I just want to say that most of what you've done is great. The thread and message numbering is superb. I wish more boards had such useful software as EvC. Indeed I'm sure that features like ignore and member rating will be very desirable elsewhere. I don't mind playing guinea pig for any new modifications, I just don't think that all of them are necessarily going to improve debate here in the long term.
