My suggestion would be to have all posts and replies appear in the first way, so the date separates the post title and the byline. I am all for the font change but I think there is better/clearer separation with the date/time inserted before the byline if that is doable as well.

And I think it also decouples the title from the author name pretty effectively too. No more golden showers by ER. Thank gawd. You know how to motivate me to fix things, Frank! Lets refine the design on Community, then I can put it on the rest of the site. How about this font?

When you choose a forum from the top, you arrive at a place where the by line is on the left of the date. Jes sayin..
