Show 75 posts per page
This option is now available from your control panel. I've no idea how long it's been there, but it's there now.
I know some people were complaining when 50ppp got taken away, so the introduction of 75ppp will likely be well received by them.
Just FYI.

I prolly wont change.
It is easier to calculate with 50 posts per page, than with 75.
50+50= 133.75...right 
75+75= 150....eh

The last time I switched up to 50 posts per page, I had difficulty viewing some pages.
This cropped up, I suspect, because those pages contained posts from long ago, before the Quick Reply feature appeared. At that point, you could have 30,000 characters per post. After Quick Reply was switched on, you could only have a maximum of 10,000 characters per post. This may have applied to the display properties of the page as well.
I started a thread called "Joe" which had some truly colossal posts. The forum installed Quick Reply halfway through, and I was no longer able to even view the previous pages unless I drastically reduced the number of posts per page viewed.

If I'm going to read all the posts anyways, will one make less load for 'Apolyton?

It probably will average out to less load for Apolyton, provided you would have viewed that page plus the one after.
I might try 100.

I could see that going either way, but I'd agree with you.

You're all welcome.
As for when the 75 posts/page option was added, it was in the past 5-7 days.

Could 100 be an option, too?
75 is great though.

well, you can add '&perpage=100' on the end of the URL, if you want more. that's what i do at CFC (not registered there and the default 20 posts suck).
however... don't forget that the more posts are shown, the more load there is on the DB-server and traffic increases too. otoh you don't need to open up all pages and have all the excess stuff on the top and bottom each time.

Some people just like using options that aren't available. If Mark and Dan offer 100, they'll all move to 150.

Actually, I'm using 50. I like round numbers, and 100 causes my scroll-wheel finger to shudder in fear.

Same. Default is too low, but equally I didn't really like 75. 50 is a happy medium.
