Is there an option to turn off "Related Thread"?

I'm having issues with the new Related Thread feature. In every other forum I use, I go to the bottom of the page to find the latest posts in a thread. Right now, if I do that on RX7Club, I end up at the bottom of a Related Thread instead. This is very confusing and a bit of a usability gaffe, in my opinion.

I tried looking for an option in my control panel to turn off the feature, but I couldn't find it. Is there a way to turn it off?

Thanks in advance!

I agrre with you in that it can be a bit confusing when it just changes which thread you're reading on the same page. I didn't see an option for turning it off, so I don't think there's a way to turn it off in the options right now anyways

Adblock Plus shouldn't have anything to do with this issue--the "related threads" thing is not coming from an ad server--they are part of the forum.

Classic next gen was selected, by default, and still doing this. Once I selected infinite scroll and then went back and selected classic next gen it fixed this issue.

Looks like you have to do this procedure every time you login. Using firefox 52.0.1 if it helps the admins track down this bug.

this "****" would be "the excremental spawn of getting laced up the wazoo by a GUY...!

If your last words before you hit a wall at 100mph were "Oh DOO-DOO" it would not get fully verbalized..would it?..Oh..Do...Smack!..lol!
People say '****' all day and it is like a common thing but when you use the word F*** in public you are sort of frowned upon and therefore it is not socially acceptable..You don't have to curse to explain a simple thing.

Besides I am sure it was the F bomb and not other Profanity I was contacting you about.
Even parents may let there child away with saying ****,Poop,damn..when it comes to "F"..it sort of draws the line.Not cool in the main section of the Forum but a little more relaxing in the LOUNGE.

Ok G?....(F can't be used.,..a b c d e ...G...!)

It must not have kicked in for me yet, because I saw what you were talking about when I logged in this morning.

Thanks for the help, Styx.
