Recent Post Idea

I know you can wipe all recent posts and make them old with that link at the top right corner, but wouldn't it be a great idea having a plug-in that allows you to press the blue/grey squares to turn into the other colour? I have been on these forums for some few days and there are some posts I don't care about and some I do, which I don't have time to look at, I think it would be great to erase the recent colour and make it not recent so I can check the ones I want to later. Or having a plugin to put a sign next to the post I check so I can check them later would be as good.

What do you think?

Cheers,

People responsible for the forum try to keep the forum as vanilla as possible.

I have a similar functionality in firefox called middle-click on link and leave open tabs

Allan that sounds cool. I tried searching for that plugin at addons.mozilla.org but couldn't find it.

I call that clutter... Not simplicity

You could have a bookmark folder with the forum sections you like to read, then right click on the bookmark folder and do open all in tabs. Saves quite a bit of time I suppose.

Thanks I might just do that

Could also use greasemonkey/userscripts to implement what you want -- shouldn't be too hard.

My suggestion is to not put "Show new posts since last visit" and "Mark all topics as read" too close together. It's annoying clicking the wrong one... *shrug*
