Ideally we would be able to see the entire thread at once, but yes, at least allowing threads to default sort oldest to newest & allowing to load nested replies beneath that would be a decent start. It would be important for the most recent stuff to show up as well though so that new activity isn't missed or hard to conveniently view.

A feature like a single click button to allow users to open all posts within a thread might also be a solution, but really the default nested image posts is just not going to allow discussions to work well for artist or roleplayer wikia users.
