IMHO, this should be addressed ASAP. My preference would be to have a way to turn off display of "Read" threads that have no new posts attached. (ie, those with grey stars). Not only would that make browsing (for regulars) easier, but it would also be faster, since I (we) wouldn't have to wait for a load of threads that I have already read and havn't had new posts added to be displayed... Just a thought... Cheers, Diolma Oh. And who's bright idea was it to turn the "Notify me when someone replies" back on by default??? I understood that a pop. poll showed (some time back) that it should be OFF by default (and I, for one agree. I have to turn it off every time...). Can't this be made a global option? For all forums?

I am shocked that the default is set back to where it was before the change. PLEASE change it BACK!! Thank you, Helen

Yeah .. The searching for posts that have replies in them three pages back is ridiculous. It makes the site pretty much unusable.

I actually hated that the Notify me thing was turned OFF by default so I'm happy that it is now ON. But you people gotta find a solution to the yellow star problem. And Make All Read is NOT an option. Or.. it's an option, but a bad one. If all the simple and free php forums can have this feature working, surely a custom-coded Bondware 3.0 forum can, too...

I hate the notify thing on by default but the yellow stars is impossible. Still :)
