Shall we try 'infinite scrolling'?

Hey everyone,
We're thinking of adding two
new features to the discussion boards and we'd like to know what you
all think. One of them is called 'infinite scrolling'.
At
the moment, threads are displayed page-by-page. With 'infinite
scrolling', new threads will load automatically once you reach the end
of the list - a bit like how social media feeds work. You would still
get the option to jump 'pages' down the list if you wanted to search far back.
Given this is a significant change to how things currently work, we don't
want to try it out without asking you guys first. Vote on the poll and
let us know what you think.
Any questions, ask us below. We're also thinking of trying 'grouped conversations' - to find out more about that, head here.
Cheers,
Mike

This site isn't too graphic-heavy, so infinite scrolling shouldn't cause any crashes either, just as a heads up.
Good point @Aidan - I'd assume that it'd be fixed, like the major social media networks, to infinite scrolling only, but the mods can provide clarity on that.
