Change of Subject

Sorry if I'm nit picking before all is set up!

In case you were not aware...
On the "subscribed Threads" page.....still shows as unread...after being read.

You have to back out of that page totally before the Bold Highlite (indicating unread) goes away.

One of the drawbacks of a cookie based "read" system. That's one of the great things about 3.5 (which I hear Jack is already playing with WOOHOO!). The read system is database driven with the new version and once you read that post, it stays read until a new reply as added.

BUT, 3.5 is not stable, and until it's completely stable and tested, we will stay on 3.0.8

So does 3.5 have the usernames and avatars over to the left of the text, rather than above the test?

Just give me hopes for the future, please...

Nope. We did it like this on purpose.

The mouse over was great, IMO. The problem is that so many create a new post titled like "Check this out ...", "You're not gonna believe this ..." and you have NO idea what it's about and 9 times out of 10 it's something I'm not interested in. If there was a way to enable it or disable it by user selection, that would be ideal.

Just my 2 cents.

My opinion, there should be an official poll posted. Based on what the majority of folks here on DTR prefer should be the decision.

There was, and Jack's vote won.
