Maybe this is just me but been new to these forums i find it quite difficult to read through so many different forums, sub forums and threads and imagine this could be quite off putting for some, if the forums could be downsized slightly to make for easier reading it may not be so off putting, for example the section for countries with a sub forum for each country could be just changed to a sub forum for countries with just a thread for each of those countries

Jus use the 'new posts', 'todays posts', and 'subscribed posts' sections. Makes it easier. You'll get used to it. No need for change IMO

Ahaha... i feel a bit daft now, i never spotted those options at the top, spent most of yesterday reading through lots of old threads lol

I guess this isn't so necessary after all... cheers for the tip ram.

Just to expand upon what Ram said, they work as follows:

• New Posts: View only the threads that have been updated since you last checked.
• Today's Posts: View only the threads that have been updated in the last 24 hours.
• Subscribed: View all the threads you have posted in.

Hope that helps.

@Andres: And jus quick suggestion while I'm thinkn abt it. I think it wud be a great idea on the verified pics to make the user also write that days date under the secret code. Just one more way to make the user go the extra mile to get verified. I had seen a thread where user where complaining that someone was actually older than they claimed. Mite help w that. Jus a suggestion

Being a newbie tho it is a good idea to read thru sum old threads, it helps give u a better idea of people also gives u more topics to reply to and having old topics brought back to life gives others a chance to realize they would like to comment as well. Some threads die for a reason tho, they can stay buried, lol
