I know ++++ about PHP, so I really have no idea what threaded view is. But if it is what I think it is, I don't like vB3, unless it's off by default, or there's an option to turn it off (Having it off by default would be more desirable..). It just looks like a vB with a bunch of hacks so far (Ones I would never use by the way

).
I guess it's just me that isn't really looking forward to it.
