Active Forum Threads Created 10 years ago2014-11-19 07:42:37 UTC by Captain Terror

With 5 forums and 5 slots in the active forums list, it seems natural that you should always see the top post of one of the forums, i.e., you would never have 2 posts from the same forum in the list, but rather it would replace the current one.

Not a big deal, just a thought.

But then if there's more 'n one thread with stuff going on in the same forum, you have to go through the sidebar to find that out.

Yeah, honestly I'd rather see the last 5 threads that were posted in than the last 5 forums.

You could add an asterisk to the title if that forum had more than one active thread, but yeah, I'm not so sure about this idea now.

One thing I would definitely like to see would to be able to sort every thread by post date. like active threads, but the whole list

Could be worse, it used to be the last 5 posts. That caused most threads to disappear into oblivion because most people just saw the last thread posted to.

I personally believe this still isn't the best way for that, but short of replacing that with the complete list of forums, I'm not sure what wouldn't cause some sort of imbalance.
