Just a suggestion for the new board

Brandon,
I love that we can now order our posts so the newest replies show first, but there is a slight glitch there. First, when I edited my board preferences, one section says to order the posts in Ascending or Descending and then the next section says to order the topics in Ascending or Descending. The post one is backward...when I selected Descending it arranges them in Ascending order and vice versa.

Also....it would be awesome if when it shows the posts in Ascending order, you could still see the original post at the top, no matter the order. I like to read the newest messages, but sometimes you need to see the original post. KWIM?

I know you are really working hard to make this board a great success and there are some really great features here!

Laura

Laura, one thing that may help is when you open a thread, you can read the original post , then click "first unread post" and it will take you to where you left off. I like that, so you don't have to read them backwards.

HAHA!! Too sweet! I used to play around building websites, so I have this uncontrollable urge to click on everything to see how it works. There are a lot of short cuts on here, you just have to figure out what is best for you.

Yeah, I know this, but I always used to have them with last reply first so there is no scrolling on the old board....until that feature no longer worked. I still like to have the original post at the top, though....otherwise I get confused! I'm not big on scrolling through long posts, so I do like that really cool feature, but even with that, I would like to see the original post at the top. Maybe that's just me, though.
