I think, and im pretty sure everyone will agree with me on this, that we need a little thing next to each topic/forum saying who the last person to reply was. this helps when checking for new posts and such. it could replace or just be next to the author's name. im pretty sure its a good idea.

your could just do it per forum section, like mine does. I make no claim to know how to do this, however, seeing as i use the built-in forum package my host has so nicely provided me with :) .

Yeah, that should be fairly easy to implement. I'll see to it whenever I have some spare time.

Since I don't ever log out unless i clear my cookie cache, the orange stars don't work that well.

I have a solution for you...logout after your forum sessions. Orange stars work well for me too.

Logging out is just a PITA. Any self-respecting forum has other ways of doing it.

im just looking to see if a specific person replied because my coputer has weird cookies so it says either ever post is new or none are new (even if they were posted in 2001 or 5 min ago)

Well, the forum already knows when each visitors came in and all that, its just that nobody added extra other feats related to that as they weren't really necessary. I guess we can add a bunch of little nicies when ever we get free time (or get off our lazy bamas).

I'm really busy, and when I'm not busy, I'm lazy. I don't know too much about teemz, but I figure it's time to open it up and see if I can eventually add those features.

Are you saying clicking your mouse twice is an annoyance? :-)

AND typing in your username and pw, then waiting for the server to log it and refresh the page.

More like control-enter... But that's still 2 more clicks I have to do to log out then get back to the log in page. :P

I'm horrified Andy...

To allyn: Well, if you find time play around with teemz, it's not really that complicate once you figure out where it stores all of its little things. I'll probably work on these feats sometime closer to the end of sememster if no one finds time for that sooner. Those are just misc. convenience fixes so I hope Andy can wait a bit :).

The login page is always on your current screen in the sidebar. I guess you could potentiall have to scroll up :-/
