    This news bot clogs up the forum a bit and it's hard to find new posts, also new posts don't show up in the feed sometimes or take ages to get there.

    I thought I would wait a few days and navigate and find it's quite easy. My only observation Wrye, is it seems the font contrast (I guess it's called) on most posts looks to be as if it's printed with a inkjet running out of ink. Maybe a prob with my settings?

    @tomtorific I darkened all the text a bit. Let me know if that helped.

    (btw: I just found a new feature...if you type @ and type a user name you can mention them and it will show up in their alerts up top.)

    FYI: The Featured Threads (the thread you see at the top of the breadcrumb) are completely automated now. They are automatically featured based off of the number of replies/likes/views/etc a specific thread gets. I no longer hand select which ones will be placed up there. Purely automated and based off of a threads popularity now.

    Added a few more changes to the forum:

    1. Members currently viewing/have viewed a post. Currently viewing is above the reply box at the bottom of a thread and those who have viewed the thread is below the comment box.

    2. Similar threads. When you go to create a new thread the software looks for similar threads that have already been started. They appear below the Title field on the create a thread page. They should also show up in some threads under the first post (if on page 1 of the thread) or under/above the reply text box (if on the second+ page)....though I don't seem to have the settings correct as it doesn't show on many threads with similar content.

    3. Active members. This shows what members have been active in the past 48 hours (updated every 5 minutes). This is on the main forum list page on the side widget.

    4. Avatars show up to most recent member reply.

    None of these mods will change how you use the forum (except maybe the Similar threads modification).....more just using this thread as a change log for the forum.
