I know you are working on some of this, but I thought I would add a few others. Speed is the issue that you say you are working on. I really fell sorry for Dial up people right about now. Auto Sort of Threads with new posts. This does not seem to be working after marking all Forums read and returning, several Forums have new posts on several pages after there is a star indicating no new posts. Also, when you read a topic, the Yellow Star does not disappear. Last is one that was annoying before and still is. Can you switch the Notify of Replies off, and add an option in the Profile so users can choose. Speaking of Profile, I get an error trying to access. I like the look, I just can not spend this much time waiting for pages to load.
