My issue with megathreads is this:
I come to the board and see two new topics posted. One of them is about the tight ends and one of them is about the quarterback situation. I don't have any interest in the quarterback discussion, so I skip that thread and read the thread on the tight ends.
With the megathreads, I have to sift through all of the topics in which I'm not interested and I have to remember what page I was on the last time I stopped reading the thread. It also require me to have a somewhat working knowledge of hundreds of pages of discussion, instead of 5 pages of a smaller topic.
One of the golf forums I tried out for a while was big in the megathreads scene. It makes it hard to keep up if you aren't in it a lot. It also doesn't turn over the discussion as much.
Obviously y'all run the board how you see fit. I'm just providing my thoughts on the subject.

Links to the last-read posts in threads is one of many features common on quality sites that this lame-arse site lacks. It's way past due for some needed feature upgrades. Consider bookmarking the last post you've read in a long thread so you can easily return there later.
