Hey Bob - you are right, it doesn't, we will edit the faq to clarify this, thanks for bringing it up.
Threaded and Hybrid are disabled as the site is unable to sustain either format (with its size) in vbulletin.

Why did you "upgrade" to vbulletin if it can't handle a few million posts?

Sorry vB, linear posting IS NOT an upgrade...
You folks should have thought this through. This upgrade has FUBAR written all over it.
Too bad...

We certainly didn't upgrade the site because we had intentions to **** off some people.
It was upgraded because kawf hasn't been updated in 10years, and vbulletin is far and away the best forum software out there (I believe its utilized by about 70% of all forums in existence off the top of my head)

It may be the best forum software out there but IMO AW has now lost much of its "sense of community", and that was what made this forum THE BEST. This new format is slow, has less desirable features, and is cold and sterile. I still believe in the community, but it's not the same. Sad day.

Right, it can't scale with the features the users want. There is either an architecture issue (likely) with vbulletin or poorly tuned caching and indexing. How does 10 years old software manage a threaded view at the same scale?
