I think that the little GREEN DOT signifies that I have posted in the thread. Some of the folders are yellow..... and some are white..... and in some of the topics, they're ALL white and I know I haven't even peeked into some of the threads.... hmmmmmm....

Also.... "new" posts are BOLD and the folder is yellow..... But when I peek in the folder turns white and the BOLD goes to normal. Not exactly sure what that's supposed to let me know. Further down they are all white folders and regular font...... I'm guessing that means there's been activity in that thread since my last visit. And a visit from me is indicated by it being white when I leave. THe green dot remains to let me know I posted there.

OK I think I get it.


The one thing I would still like to see is some sort of indication even when the thread is normal font, white folder, and down the list a bit, and without a green dot to tell me I posted in it..... some sort of indicator that I have visited the post previously. Something as simple as having the dot turn yellow for a visit without a comment, and green for a visit with a comment. That would make searching the forums so much easier.



Why not just go to: My Stuff/Posts? It shows every thread you've posted in.
