Unread posts disappear

[Talking Poker]

(I apologize if this post sounds like its insulting your intelligence, because I'm not trying to do that, but I'm not sure how this isn't obvious, so I'm going to just spell it all out. Maybe you just didn't realize how things are organized here or something.)

If you click on your name and search through your posts (or threads or whatever), you should quickly be able to determine when you were gone. Let's say you were gone from 8/15 - 10/1.

Just open up each forum and read through the threads with activity during those dates. For example:


As it stands now, there are posts in 4 threads (including this one) that fall in those dates (Questio0n about the Spam Forum, HH Converter Test thread, and two from you). Open them up, scroll down to the posts from when you were gone, and read them.

Tada.

I guess it's a low tech solution, but I don't really understand why you'd want to do it any other way. No posts/threads are deleted from this forum, so everything you missed is still here. Each sub-forum is sorted by date in descending order, so it should be very easy for you to identify the threads you need to go through.

And if you don't care about EVERYTHING and just want to find the "hot topics," just open the ones that have a bunch of replies. Generally, if no one of very few people are replying to a thread, you aren't missing much.

P.S. Took me 5 seconds to determine that you were gone for most of July (you were here until 7/9) all of August and all of September.
