r, Larry, S, Scott,
To set discussions as default is a thing of the past.
The only way to have it is to Bookmark (or whatever it is called in your preferred browser) it.
You still have the even more outdated option of 100 threads per page if you use this full URL (for your Bookmark):
http://forums.adobe.com/community/illustrator/illustrator_general?view =discussions#/?per_page=100
The crucial part,
?view=discussions#/?per_page=100
can be added to the Discussion page of any forum, so you can (use the Bookmark and) have it all back.
