    All I see is the second gen forum section. Not sure what you are trying to show me.

    Agreed on that. Conversation view is a huge upgrade IMO.

    The previous forum icons served three purposes. The envelope that is closed means you have read the thread. If there is an arrow on top of the envelope, it means you have replied to it (this is what I want back), if the envelope is open with paper coming out, it means there are unread posts. If the envelope is red instead of blue, it means it has a lot of views. I'm not sure why this forum feature has been taken away. It was quite useful. The forum looks "newer" and "flashier", but it is less intuitive and dumbed down compared to the previous version IMO

    No, the envelope icon with the arrow. There is only one in the picture. It is zigzagged just as I described.

    I understand now. I can bring back the "if you replied to it" indicator. I'll add it to my list, but give it time.

    yea but they get bumped instead of a whole new message. I have over 5,000 PMs and now its way easier to talk with people or multiple people.

    Its a great improvement.

    However i do wish itwas more like an actual forum/thread then a modified version. @tcBob Multi quote would be nice for instance

    Ok take a look at the front page (or any subforum)...If you posted in that thread you'll see a tiny version of your avatar
    upload_2015-5-6_15-26-45.jpg

    If you hover over it, you'll see how many times you posted in there

    Sweet!

    I thought it was a glitch then I realized, "how cool would it be if that means I posted in that thread"

    Hey Bob

    Anyway to make it so that it doesn't just tell you how many times you posted in that thread but also makes it so you can actually see all your posts in that thread, like on the old board?

    While there is no way to please everyone, (some had complaints on the old forum too) I for one am truly enjoying this update. @tcBob seems to be accomdating just about everyone's request here (great ideas!)and making this forum more enjoyable for everyone here.
