I am new to the forums and playing with the cfgs. I was wondering if there were any settings so the layout would be a vBulletin (or other popular BB's) style?
The current layout just feels unatural to me, like I was back in the late 90's with threaded BB systems. Trust me I do not miss those days 
It is what is is!

Did you try the different views? I guess most of the users use Dynamic view.

Yes, I tried all of them, but I was hoping I was missing something. Having to click on every post to view it is just not desirable. If I want to read a topic/thread, just give me the page with the whole discussion so I can scroll. I can even get that in newsgroups these days. No more clicking needed.
The amount of participation on this site is very large it seems, except for in the forums. With the amount of user submitted areticles and code you would think these forums would be much busier then they are. I think this is in part due to the retro navigation system and no choice for anything other.

And i dont thing its going to change any sooner. so strap on your seatbelts and enjoy the ride.

When you say supporters. Do you epopel who submit code/articles or is there an option for paid subscruptions that I am missing?
And if it's articles or code that defines who is a supporter, do you have a link to a page explaining the qualification rules? I found the contribute link, but all it mentions is submission formatting, not the benefits of submitting in the first place.
It is what is is!

Thanks for link.
That's actually a pretty good deal on the package, to bad I already have VS.NET.
Maybe when Whibley/'05 is released

Wasn't there talk a while ago to sell subscriptions so that people could just buy a premium subscription. Because I currently have an MSDN subscription and so I cannot get the supporter status that way.

.NET has redacted a lot of legacy Win32 and other functionality that still has a place in industry. I think an interop category is highly appropriate given that this is where .NET, COM, and C, C++ folks get together. It would also be very good to see the various aspects that are missing from .NET that others have encountered and are solving with the good ole Win32 or COM hammers.

The post preview doesn't appear to work anymore. It actually post the message without giving you the chance to edit it as before.
Also, is it just me or is the site getting really slow lately? I guess thats a good thing means more people are using it. As much as i use this site for its great information i'm highly considering sending a contribution. Anyway thanks for the great site. Keep up the good work

I saw some other forums have the function for jumping to Page N.
If CP forums have such similar tool (for example, a dropdown list control, or a spin control), it would be even easier to search an old post.
