First, let me say that I really like the Forum Posts list on the left-hand side of the screen.  I use it constantly to revisit threads I've participated in.  What I'm wondering is, can we possibly make it a little more in-depth?  For instance, maybe the box can be a different color if the thread has been posted in since you last posted.  Or maybe even expand on that and include how many posts since your last post (because if a thread has about 50 posts since I last posted, I normally won't feel like reading all 50 to get cought up, unfortunately..).  Though, that last bit isn't exactly important..I'd just really like the changed color if a thread has been updated since I last visited it, if you catch my drift?

Would anyone else think this would help them at all?  I find myself a lot of times trying to look at how many posts a thread has, because when I'm online posting during the day, sometimes I'll be participating in a number of threads at once, and trying to remember how many posts a thread had when I posted is kind of frustrating, so I wind up checking a thread multiple times for no reason, or checking it too late after 10 people have posted.

If not, oh well, but thanks for considering it anyway!

I think there was a request along these lines already...a message if your post has been quoted in a thread. I think just giving a post in your history a different colour if it has been quoted is a much better idea

Ok, that would work..so how about 2 different colors, one for posts past yours and one for quoted..obviously if both applied, the box would be the color of a quoted post. Good point stubbs, but sometimes I like to see what people say even if it's not directed at me or about what I said.



Good idea.
So i can always see if it was me who killed the thread. ;)
No serious.I think it would make being on this site even more comfortable.

I propose we use colours on the side to determine if......

^^^ good news



Awesome. Good to know, and sorry to bring up something that's already been brought up, apparently twice! ..but thanks TalonMan.

*edit*
Damn, 5/01/07..yeah, you're a little ahead of me on this..and almost spot on, though you explained it a little more in depth=P



I would like to see a function that allows you to see what threads each user has created. Some members are more interesting then others in their thread creation and it would be great to be able to see on their profile what threads they have created so if one is interested one can go through said persons threads.

 Also not a bad idea...I haven't been here long enough to get a feel for who I'd use that feature for yet, but I already know a few people who I don't care much for in terms of created threads, so I can definately see how this feature would become useful in the future.



Great work, TalonMan.
