Default Maximum page size

Is it possible to make the maximum page size longer - say, about twice as long? I find that I need to hop back and forth between pages a lot more often than on other discussion forums I belong to.

We've got a fast broadband connection and accessing a page is slow because it takes around 200 ms for an access request to get from here to the siteground228.com server in Dallas, but actual page content downloads fast.

What's your connection like in China, Zichao? Would longer pages be a nuisance?

yes, the default is ten but you can set it for up to 40 per page.

if most people want me to up it i'm very happy to, otherwise Roadkill just go via the following:

User CP > Edit options > Thread display options > Number of Posts to Show Per Page

I'm generally ok here. Things are only slowed down when I'm using a proxy or a wireless connection, which isn't the case most of the time.
