      ^^^ I was wondering the same thing Kamal.

      I think its a good idea, but I really wish you could see how you got a thank you without having to sift through threads to find it....I know Tom and Adam have looked, but its just not available right now (or something to that effect)

        I still think there should be a direct link to MCast somewhere on the front page or the forum home page, unless i'm missing something I don't see any

        I also don't really see the point on having the recent polls on the front page.. hardly any one votes on them, and they're typically irellevant to the over all content of this community.. those along with the mercuryserver news posts on the front, someone who has never been here hits the site for the first time and sees polls about vaccines and obama and a couple of posts that we've upgraded and hernan gets a new comp.. just doesnt seem to give a good first impression

          I added a tab for MCast next to Downloads.

          I also like the polls, but I can see your point here. I pulled them down for a bit

              perfect! (for the mcast tab)

              the polls thing was just my opinion.. but I do think seeing more of the latest posts will give an overall better view as to what the community is about

                How is it any different from people posting a thousand posts with just "Thanks" in the P&R forum?

                  I'm trying to figure out how to target our content from specific forums. If I could do that, we could do polls from GYY only, show recent MCast content in a sidebar, etc. Until we can figure that out, I don't see any harm in them showing or not showing. We're still only a few days into the new site, and I have plenty to do still before it gets to a state where I'm happy

                      I think people are doing that so they know they have downloaded a set. To differentiate it from new sets, rather than to say thanks. If it's really the case (just my suspicion, though) then this mod won't prevent it.

Although I would prefer that people post what they feel without either. I was glad when you got rid of the rep system. To replace it with this just doesn't work for me.

                            actually I thought you would've preferred this mod because it will give newer sets the chance of being seen and not give popular sets the front page of the P&R forum (essentially what you were trying to achieve with the default sort order).

                              I agree on that part. But if they're doing it to mark the thread as "I've seen this" then the thank you mod won't accomplish that. It just depends on how it's being used, I guess

                                I turned this link underlining on. I hate that it applies across the board, rather than just for links in posts... if I can figure out how to turn it on only for post content, I'll do my best to disable it on the forum elsewhere.

                                I also made the font on the forum display page one size smaller since the underline helps differentiate
