Hi
When I load the home page there is no indications that new posts have been made in specific forums.
It would be handy to have the same thing as we have when we enter a section, i.e new posts are highlighted with a different colour etc.
If we could have that on the forums homepage it would be nice !

you should get this when you are logged in, new posts or threads with new posts since your last visit should look different...

I use the new posts since last log in link, the only other way I can see if there are any new posts in sections is when the folder icon is open on the left hand side

The only problem with this feature is that your focus isn't on where the post is stored... your focus is more around the posts you have not seen. I for one find this a slight problem because I can never locate posts at a later date and when I'm posting crap to follow on from someone elses trash post I always assume the thread must be in the jokes section.

Thats it, blame the forum software for your own mis-demeanours and muppeting.

I thought I justified it quite well.

lmao, guys, I can see new posts highlighted when I enter specific forums.
BUT I cannot see on the forums home page if there are new replies in each forum, they are all coloured the same ?
