Re: New Forum Format
I hadn't really noticed it until you guys mentined it. There really is not much to moderate on this board, it appears we only have adults here and they are behaving themselves. Maybe a different color is needed, no biggy though. Dale has done enough for now and needs some rest!

Re: New Forum Format
Yeah, I noticed the Moderator names blending in and will get that fixed.
The different color eagles tell you all sorts of things about a thread. On the main page they tell you which sections have new posts in them. Inside each section there are more colors that tell you even more. they will let you know if a thread is new, they will tell you which threads were started by you, they will tell you which threads are the most popular, they will tell you if a thread has been moved or locked. There is a guide at the bottom of each section page that tells you what the colors mean. Unfortunately there is no way to mark which posts inside a thread you have already read.
Like Paul said, we do have a great group with no moderation needed. I am very proud of that. I get a pretty large number of spammers trying to sign up each week but it is not that hard to spot them and then I double check the addresses against known lists. So far it has worked.
Now if we only had spell check and a chat room! haha.. I like the idea of holding the spell check for ransom until Clifford starts a project thread!

Dale,
Thanks for your explanation on my ignorance of how to know when a post or reply is new.
