Just a quick question. Is there a way to use the "hybrid" thread view (that gives both the outline and the individual posts) but also switch the post order to newest-first?

Nope. And in the hybrid mode, the post numbers correspond to the posts on that page only, not the number of posts in the thread. Thus, referring back to "post xyz" won't work.

I do like the hybrid view for keeping track of who's replying to whom, but it's a bit clutzy in vBulletin, so I use Linear.

Yeah. I don't mind not having it automatically return to my last read post if I could reverse the post order. The outline window would make it easy enough to pick that up. I don't like having to scroll to the bottom in order to do so, though. I guess I'll keep it the way I've used it for years.

Who knows, Fazor - perhaps vBulletin 4.x may sport more user-modifiable features?
