I'd personally find this most useful on the "Forums" page to be honest. That's where you can only see one latest thread per forum, so it makes it impossible to ignore. When a thread is listed among several, it's easy to ignore.

New Post first? Is it for mobile? I would like it last on the desktop. Much easier to click down the middle of the page.

Will probably get used to it in a few years :(

Nice. Ignoring all the "We can't win league with.." threads.

Would be great if you could add an option to not hide threads made by an ignored member, as you can potentially miss a lot of chat just because of who the thread starter is.

Not sure how possible it is.

I've been ignoring most of the football forums without any help for about a decade now.

A decade? Liverpool or arsenal supporter?
Huh?

The football forums have been a silly place since. Erm? Well? Forever.

Although the night that Raoul and I banned over 100 scourers after they played up in the football forums was a highlight.

10 years ago was glorious for us though.
I was a lurker on here back then.

The “New Posts” link not being visible on mobile is definitely a pain. I’ll see if I can sort that out.

This new feature needs to *get out of the cocking way*.

Sanctity, like a cat, abhors filth.
The only thing I don't really like is that you don't see the 'new posts' link in the black bar. Instead now you see 'FAQ', 'threads you ignore' and 'forums you ignore' on the black bar when you are in a thread. So you always have to do an extra click to get to the 'new posts' function. At least on mobile, haven't seen the interface on a pc yet.

Surely the 'new posts' is used more by everyone than the ones just added?

Edit - Apparently on landscape mode it's still the same as it used to be, it's just portrait mode that doesn't show the 'new posts' function.
Came in to say this. Those three options, when you use your phone, are the only options you see without having to go to a drop down menu. None of those 3 options are tabs I would ever use so it is a really inefficient use of real estate. I would use watched threads or new posts which were both there before. Quite inconvenient.

I keep hitting ignore forums instead of new posts. Thus wasting 2 seconds of scrolling time. Simply not good enough, and I blame Damien

This is great. Thankfully I only make threads nobody cares about.

Ok I've moved the "Threads you ignore" and "Forums you ignore" links to the account drop down menu.



The New Posts link is now visible again on mobile.

reply to loads of people and see what happens
That's not foolproof though, i've got all my notifications switched on, and i'm not that sad i'd ever ignore anybody, but yet I still stumble upon posts sometimes weeks later where posters have replied to one of my posts but I haven't been notified, and it looks as though i've ignored them.

Shit he's not going to reply. lol

Awesome, I wanted this feature so much! Would be more useful if it worked on the thread listings on the homepage too.

Life is infinitely better.. although, threads from the ignored forums are still showing up in the main feed.
