Today's active topics
« on: May 22, 2003, 03:55:17 PM »
UBB's nicest feature (and nearly the only one I can find that YaBB doesn't have, and usually better implemented) is a "Today's Active Topics" link where it searches and displays liniks to all threads that have been posted to taht day. The closest YaBB has that I can find is a "10 Most Recent" link. So if I know there have been posts on more than 10 different threads, I have to do a search, which isn't so bad, but isn't convenient. just thought I'd throw that out to see if someone wants to code it.

Why don't you just check the threads with the little *new* tag on them?

I think SE has taken the concept of laziness a bit far there ;)

If you're ever in an argument and Entropy winds up looking staid and temperate in comparison, it might be time to cut your losses and start a new thread about something else :)

That requires going to each forum to see what's there. I want something that I can hit once and see at a glance if there's something I want to investigate

Hey, you SOLICITED suggestions. I made one. You don't have to get whiney and make excuses. There may even already be a mod for it for YaBB.

I suspect SE is right about that. And I have to agree it could be handy.

Still, Tage needs to have better customer service skills.

You say you will do it, then you conveniently forget about it.

?  From my perspective, he's generally very up-front about the fact that he's probably not going to do any of the things everybody wants him to.

EUOL, having once had the miserable job of working in customer service. Many people in that field prefer to make promises and then not follow through with them than tell the customer what they don't want to hear.

Also, in many corparate jobs outside of IT, you don't get the option of telling people no. Don't you read Dilbert?
