User blog comment:Randomized/Can we have Talk Pages again?/@comment-4918842-20131125200922/@comment-4910132-20131126000402

Actually, Message Walls let you see the conversation much better, being that they show the entire conversation. On the other hand, Talk Pages are split in to two indivisual pages. IMO it is harder to read a full conversation using talk pages than message walls. This may divert some. . . unwanted attention. On the other hand when the users who are meant to be reading it already know what the last thing was said, unless you have very short term memory, then it is easy enough for them, and not the other users who are stalkers.
