The problem with threads losing their continuity, I think, is related to the way communications software interfaces with CIS. This isn't always the case, I know, but there are a lot of times where you just hit the "reply" button and address a certain part of a message, and bingo, the face of the thread changes. And I defy anyone to consistently include ONLY the subject of the thread in every sentence of the message. The problem as I see it is that you can't reply to a message and change the name of the thread at the same time (at least not with WINCIM). As far as open sales pitches go, I'll agree with Paul Lind. It seems the 3D Studio world is growing exponentially, and with it comes an increase in all flavors: helpfulness, greed, apathy, passion. Let's hope we can get a balance without a witch hunt and without losing key forum people like Paul and Kevin.
