'new posts' - different modes

[daBoss]

i get different opinions about the current 'new posts' mode... want to revert to the old method?

new: when you click on 'new posts', it only shows you the posts that you have not read... even those from your previous sessions... once you read a post, it doesn't appear in the list anymore... until a new post is made...

old: only threads containing new posts since your previous sign in is showed... even after you read a post, it still appears in the 'new posts' list until you log out and back in again...

want to revert to the old way?

To me, the newer version is much better as it remembers where I left off even if I dun login for a couple of days. Doesn't mean that it will happen.
No forum for a single day.....dare not of think of it.

the new mode takes a bit of getting used to. Once that's over, i think it's quite nice!

I hardly use the New Posts function. So, it makes no difference to me.

i like the new mode... as i get quite busy at times...
this way i am not under pressure to read everything per login session...
as i know i can still track back when i login next...

not entirely true... i've set it such that after 10 days of no updates in a thread, the thread will be considered as 'read' anyway... :)
