I have mine set at: “Show threads from \<Last Day\>”  
(Upper Right corner of the page)

So I don’t have to read the same stuff again & again…We were talking a little bit about this in About This Message Board & how much load it puts on the server.

So, what’s your setting?

5 Days

Which is odd, considering I spend an hour every morning and at least 3 each night here…
