When i go to a convo with no new replies, i think it would be alot better to be sent to the last post rather than the OP.

The ability to save posts that you want to look back at later (e.g. for comedy or so you can refer to them). Would also help when it comes to voting for the annual awards if you could find your favourite posts all in one place. No idea if it's possible on XenForo though.

Definitely possible. There are a few 'bookmark' add-ons. With regards to the awards, you might find a few ideas for nominations over the past year in this thread.

Redcafe needs some ambient background sounds. I suggest English football stadium crowd noises from the 1980s when we are all agreed chanting was at its absolute peak of originality and intensity. The track doesn't have to be from Old Trafford but I would prefer not to hear the Kop singing YAWN, especially when I'm composing a hateful post about LFC.

I hope you're joking.

Has anyone suggested moving Drafts to entertainment forum since they’re basically a game? I find them a tad insufferable.

Can we create a knee-jerk subsection and move all the rubbish created after losing games to there?

Can we have a like button on posts? I know what you're thinking "omg if we give them a like button the number of comments will drastically reduce" but actually I disagree.

I've been on other forums where there is a like button and it's a way of expressing recogntion towards someones efforts. It will reduce posts, but only those which are "yeah me too" or "i agree". Even better it'll reduce posts which are "I agree but i want to sound like i've got more to say so here is a regurtitated version of your already stated opinion".

The quality posts will still keep on coming and that's what you really want!

It would also turn a discussion into a popularity contest.

How are insufferable bores like myself supposed to boost our post counts? You must think again.

most of them already are. Besides they're often very discrete. Look at the ones on reddit. As long as we don't change how we display posts, it shouldn't make much of an impact.

I don't think a like button is going to dissuade the types who like to write a post saying that they agree with what's been said.

It'll just turn the forum into a big willy waving contest.

I'm pretty sure it's already been floated but have youse considered a dedicated games board?
Would certainly help stop clogging other threads with games.

Yes, it has been mentioned quite a few times and is being internally debated.

Games usually have threads of their own rather than being put in an existing thread so don't know how you've experienced that.

Women's team forum?

EDIT - Unrelated to whatever you're discussing there. Just something I was wondering if we were gonna do.

Any chance there could be an easier way to ignore threads, bit of a pain having to go into every one and select it, couldn’t there be a “select multiple “ then select the ignore box on the ones you don’t want to see or something?

1 - Your post had a typo.
2 - Before you noticed it someone replied your post.
3 - You edit your original comment to fix it.
4 - The typo remains in the part the text replied by the other usuary(in the top of his post).

Its possible a solution? Besides not posting typos, of course.
