well, you have to remember this is a pre made forum,
that limits ones flexibility.

not really, because loads of features have been subsequntley added to the forums, i.e. the reputation feature.

if you have access to the source of the forum, you can do anything with it

WDZ is god. WDZ can do anything.

Adding a link to those suggested/already used titles could be useful

1) Click next to the topic title to jump to the oldest unread post.
2) http://shoutbox.menthix.net/latest.php shows all new posts since you last checked and then click the icon next to the title.

MyBB 1.2 has a similar feature (it shows in showthread.php, under the Quick Reply Box) maybe WDZ can have a look how it works.

Yeah, I know how that works. I'm just curious if someone came up with a more elegant solution, or any cool tricks I could steal. Less thinking required.

Blah... I don't really need to see their code, although it would be interesting. I'm not sure if I want to add the feature anyway.

Oh, and maybe they didn't even write it, it could be a vBulletin modification that requires a license (¬_¬)...
