Although the system default is the Linear view, Threaded or Hybrid displays are options. In the threaded view, only a hierarchical view of the thread is displayed (along with the first post in the thread), showing who responded to whom, depending on whether the person responding clicked on "Reply" or "Reply with Quote" under the post to which they are responding, or clicked "Reply to Thread". Clicking on an item in that display will show that post.
