When designing a forum, which system do you think is best? Tiered (example: [www.digg.com](http://digg.com/design/Happy_40th_Birthday_Cubicle_Now_die)) or chronological (almost all other forums such as Kirupa)? Tiered gets rid of the problem of massive amounts of quoting. Chronological helps give a sense of who said what when (obviously). What are your thoughts?
