I'd happily see the minumum (or at least the default) set to 25 per page rather than 15, though I'd personally like to have 50 or 100 available. | |

| Re: increasing number of posts per page
for Reg Members the current situation is:
Threads default to 15 posts per page.
Everyone has the option to change that for themselves to 5,10,20,30 or 40
We can add 50 —and maybe 100 (and any other inbetweeny numbers) — to the list of options so that you can view more of a thread at once and therefore click next page less often. This'll happen if folks are keen.
Raising the default from 15 is probably more board admin type decision in the end but everyone's thougths on the matter are still important  | |

50-100 posts per page would be alright, but would be a bugger if it was image heavy (Show Yourselves, Photo A Day II etc). Would it not slow the server down? | |

Really it should use some kind of Ajax magic to load more posts as you scroll near the bottom of a page. | |
