Thread preview

Why does this board not have that feature? Most every other web board I visit, if you put the mouse on the tread link, it will pop up a little window with the first few lines of the thread.

Why doesn't this board have that?

No you did not miss it, it is called "childish attitude" I deal with it here all the time. Along with "false entitlement" it creates many problems on these forums.

I see both sides... sometimes it's annoying when the preview keeps popping up when you don't want it too I just thought the leaving comment was funny

It can be annoying 53, you are right.


They could make it a feature that if you click once on the thread title it would come up otherwise it would be off.

OR

Allow us to adjust our profile settings for on or off depending on what each user wants....................................
