I myself don't use the latest posts page, but I can easily get 20 tabs at a time, one thread in each, often half in GCC and T&T. I can just stop going into those boards
but then I lose out on a large portion of the community spirit. On Mess.be and MSNFanatic forums, I only view a handful of the boards, and I'm largely inactive as a result. In fact, I use those forums so little I'm not sure why I joined them.
Basically, hiding GCC from guests would allow us all to benefit those who need help more, no matter how you search for new threads.
