    ok NOT fair. You hid the New Posts link in a dropdown menu. grrrrrrrrrrrr.... :mad:
    It might look pretty and organized, but it's not convenient (at least not for me. I'm spoiled).

    We normally wouldn't have moved it, but since the "Unread Posts" button in the welcome box (in the upper-right) is a link to New Posts, we didn't see it to be necessary to have two links to the same page.

    yeah I never look at that link. I don't like that mod, lol. I like my New Posts link.
    Oh well.

    lol naw you don't have to do that for me, silly man. But thanks anyway.
    I guess I just have a thing about what I consider "unnecessary" mods. They're nice, and convenient, but not really necessary, when you already have the means to do what it does.

    Topping it off, I'm vocal about it, and can be pretty blunt.

    Peggy, you'll just have to get used to it. Tough!

    I'm just kidding. ;)

    :lol:

    -

    I think what I'll do is create a new profile option and allow members to toggle the setting to show the new posts link.

    Likewise.

    The clean look is a sacrifice I had to make. :headbang:

    Now this was a good idea.

    Nick is such a meanie. :lol:

    I actually complained about it after having seen it last night somewhere, so when I tried clicking on the new posts link where it usually is, I was oddly amused to see that nothing happened. :p

    I'm a BIG fan of the "unread posts" mod and I'm happy to see it here. I'm even MORE happy to see that Peggy can still have her way with that option for the "New Posts" link. :D
