Steve,
I have always used the 'View New Posts' option to read the forums. I have always kind of liked checking out some of the discussions going on in some of the forums that I normally wouldn't check.
That was great two-three years ago when there was a lot less guys around. Now it seems like if I go any period of time at all, I get 10+ pages of results. I don't want to wade through all of those threads to find the ones that I am interested in. I find myself actually not coming around as much as I used to because I feel like there is no way that I can ever keep up. I read a couple pages of topics and then leave. I am probably missing the topics that I am really interested in.
I was wondering if you could set up a way for users to filter the 'View new posts' by Forum. Or at least when you have the results of the 'View new posts' query if you could sort on other columns then the "Last post date". Then I could sort the results by Forum.
I don't know if the software already supports this and I am missing it, or if it is even possible on your end. I was just thinking of features that could make it better. (May I never have to weed through political posts again! :p )
