While we are making suggestions, I would like to see a red “YOU HAVE POSTS” on the threads you are reading.
Currently we have to click on the “PINGS” button, guessing that we might have comments. Or we have to go to a refreshed News/Chat page to see it in the upper right hand corner.
You can use the PING window. Just click the speaker thingee in the upper right corner. You'll have a little mini-ping window pop up.
