On the old board, if you had already read through the posts in a single thread then the Thread Title was left in normal, unbolded, font. Here, every Thread Title is bolded so there’s no way of knowing if you’ve exhausted all the posts in a particular thread.

I noticed that too, it was one of the features on the old board that I liked.

It also doesn't give you alerts when somebody replies to your post or adds to the thread. The only alerts you get are likes.

You can adjust your settings/notifications in your 'Preferences' tab when you click your avatar. From there, you can select what kind of notifications you receive. So, you can set it to receive a notification when someone replies to you, when someone mentions you, and when someone replies to a thread you are 'watching' (you can 'watch' a thread by selecting 'watch' on the top right).

I don’t think the mouse over works here either. If so tell me how please. I used that as a screen to determine if I wanted to even open up a cryptic thread title.

I don’t see where this is an option.

We sent that into the tech team today. Like I mentioned yesterday, there are going to be small things that just simply take time. The thread topic is a good example. That's something we brought up as well.

The site is three months old. It took Rivals/247 well over a year to reach the finished product it is today. Just be patient with us. We're chipping away at all of that.
