Here's a nice idea - How about an auto-refresh on the active topics list?

I think that's already been discussed to the point that there is no more dead horse to beat, Synth...


My idea: Auto-locking of threads beyond a certain age.

Ok, seriously, WTH: "One private message had been removed due to private message filters."

Its a private message, its nobody elses businees what you and someone else say in a PM :?
This scares me, it opens up huge can of worms about privacy in PM's. :shock:

Vista or XP? vista Sidebar has a feed reader, but you have to add the pages via IE which is fricking retarded :|

Have you reached your maximum PM limit in your inbox? If so, that's why - nothing to worry about. :wink:

Yes and there are too many items hence a filter kicked in which filters out any new messages if there are too many.

Here's a useless something.
On the mybroadband forum users title (like "Registered User" here) is dictacted by their post count. Between 1-x posts counts as newbie, 100-x.... you get the picture.

Like I said, useless, but wouldn't mind seeing it here.

I think you will find that the RSS feeds was disabled because it was causing massive server load...

In that case - don't do it. I really don't need that sort of attention. Just take the count away when you pass 30k.
