If we're taking an opinion poll on this new archive system, mine is against this one. If you're doing this because the page gets too big, it would seem more logical to me to split the month in half so that there's June 1-15 on one page and June 16-30 on another. Even so, when threads are continued for weeks at a time the page is still going to get big. The old system does get to be a lot to sift through, but regular readers can follow the yellow "new" icons to keep track of what they haven't read yet. Or am I just being anal-retentive about this?
