They do, they do! At the right of the blue bar just above where you're reading this, there should be a pulldown marked "Display Modes". I've had mine in "Linear" all along and have been assuming everyone else did, too. It sounds like you're reading in one of the other modes, though.

Also having the option that would show the whole thread all at once would be nice.

When I'm in "linear mode", ten posts are displayed on each page. At the top and bottom of each page is a navigation tool for going to other pages. Sometimes I'll have two or three pages open at the same time in different browser windows or tabs, and be able to jump quickly between them without losing the place where I'm replying.
I'm delighted to see you still hanging in here. There are some interesting points you've raised in the last couple of days that I'm still planning to address (eventually).

Oh, and: In that same blue bar is another pulldown called "Thread Tools" that offers a printer-friendly view of one page (ten posts) at a time. In a thread I'm especially interested in, I'll sometimes print out a few pages of posts to take with me and reread over lunch. In fact I have some sitting in the printer right now that I shouldn't forget.
