Some of the envelope icons (on the left side) are different shades, or even different colors. I've looked for a definitions page, but haven't found one yet. Can someone please help either point me to a URL or give me a decoder ring? TIA.

Hello zombie67,
The forum documentation is in the Help section of the lower task bar (Search / Rules / Help). But it documents a broken feature. When we modified the forum software to run on multiple servers, several features were broken, including the envelopes, which are supposed to show you which threads have unread posts and which threads have lots of posts.

Lawrence I'm confused. Are you directing me to something that tells me no-longer-accurate information? Are you saying that te colors/shades of the envelopes mean nothing? |

Hello zombie67,
I just told you that the envelope icons mean nothing because the feature described in the documentation is broken. Lawrence |

Hello zombie67, I just told you that the envelope icons mean nothing because the feature described in the documentation is broken. Lawrence Thanks for telling us the icons mean nothing. Seriously. I have spent several months trying to make it make sense. However, like I said, there is no documentation that I can find (even now) that even talk about this subject. So either I am missing it, and/or it needs to be easier to find. |

Well, u may have spend trying to make sense, but apparently not hard enough. Here something compiled to help users to navigate and understand and where the information came from.
