Is there anyway to view new post's since last visit. I really need the old way of doing it. This whole Unread posts un-replied threads 24/hr thing Im not liking it. I wish it were simple. Can we like be able to choose some option via our account to have different skins. I really want to go back to the old view, its just easy to be able to get at new posts instead of seeing 18 pages on Unread Posts. Get what I am saying?
Or am I doing something wrong?
The green arrow pointing down to the left of the thread title jumps you to first unread post in the thread.
I know what you are saying. These new forums are nice but I'm not used to it yet either.
I agree it is still a bit clunky. Part of it is getting used to it but it feels like it lacks "polish" with respect to finding new threads.
Certainly a step in the right direction though!

Like being able to come to the site crack down on some threads help people out. Be able to close the window come back a bit later and see ONLY new posts and replys to other threads not a fat list of threads I have already seen or are not even replyed to.

There is a mark forum read button, once you do that to all forums to indicate you've looked at them all the new post tracking seems pretty solid.

there are still a few bumps to iron out, but overall the new forums are pretty sweet. :thumbsup:
if zanthor is right, then all you need is a button to mark all posts as 'read'.. which will reset all posts and only highlight those you need to read.
and we get cool little smilies 8)

Smilies suck and I agree, I miss the old setup...having to mark the forum read every damn time I visit is a waste of time and you might mark something that's replied to as you're doing so =\ Came in to work this morning and everything I didn't go through is still marked unread...ugh
Not to mention if I try to post it doesn't ask me to login first...it just gives me a username slot and a security code I can't read half the time to put in lol
Hmmm I am confused. From what I understand is that once you mark the Read All button its like starting fresh. Now after each time I read a thread, post or not it will only give me an arrow if someone else posts. New posts/threads will be marked with an arrow. If this is the case, this is Not happening and I did mark them.
