I know this is horrible bikeshedding, so I apologize in advance, but… even though I am more of a square vs. rounded kind of web guy, I find that I consistently prefer rounded avatars in the topic list. Every time I see s…

</div>

On my forum, we have categories in which everyone is required to read every topic. I’ve been exploring the NEW and “Consider topics new when you haven’t viewed them yet” setting which seems to meet this requirement. How…

</div>

Every forum has the TL;DR problem of regularly generating topics that have 100, 200, 500, or even a thousand posts. Who the heck is going to read all 500+ posts in a giant topic? We had a “best of” mode for topics th…

We have the following badges for V1 but they have no sane groupings: Basic User Regular User Leader Elder Reader Read Guidelines First Link First Quote First Like First Flag First Share Welcome Autobiographer Editor Nic…

</div>
