Okay. What about members who primarily look at technical threads or/and avoid political threads? @mist_consecutive @Shaitan (and others that I've missed).

I don't use non-political. For me a longer "Latest Replies" will be better.

 

[LurkerBaba]

Okay. I've removed Non Political and increased the items in Latest Replies

 

[Shaitan]

I just use new posts sometimes.

 

[StealthFlanker]

Did not get you ?
Okay. This might be ideal for Indian members. But foreign folks may not be interested in Indian politics etc.
Paging @Tactical Frog @StealthFlanker @asianobserve. Do you find this widget useful ? ^

Yes I think it is very useful.

 

[LurkerBaba]

Yes I think it is very useful.

I've added a "Global Defence" widget which focusses on non-Indian military forums

Is it possible to read the posts of only a specific member in a large thread containing 100's of pages?

Three possible ways:
1. You can ignore a member. That way all their posts are hidden
2. Select "Who replied" from the "..." button next to "Watch/Unwatch" button. Then click on their message count when modal pops up
3. Use the search bar to search for posts within the thread only by member

@LurkerBaba

I like the current break up of the side widgets, please keep it that way, helps lots of lurkers like me to get to the recent updates quicker.

Tweet posting on forums is not exactly useful IMO. Pages after pages loading just tweets breaks the conversation experience. Forums should encourage original content and opinions between members. Tweet dumping takes away essence. This should be at least regulated if not to be solved in permanent manner.

I would like it if URLs and linked text is displayed in blue rather than existing grey. It will greatly help members in tracking posts.

Let us stop with the meta-commentary on the merit or validity of OSINT before it derails the thread.

Members are free to discuss anything as long as it is on topic and does not break any rules. Please use the ignore feature if you wish to mute out discussions you would not like to be a part of.

Kindly introduce hastags on the posts where such users can hastag #madeupunaccountablerumour and we can block posts with this hastag.

This is a good idea, but I am not sure if forum software allows it?

@LurkerBaba?

Not implementable currently

Then please make a seperate thread for all these tweets and their followers.

I have a request. The search should be made more accurate. For example, if I type "Chit Chat thread" in the search box, at least one of the results should be the actual chit chat thread. This doesn't happen right now. Kindly test and fix.

I've added some weights to recency. Results should be a bit better

Folks, do you find emails being sent for every watched thread a useful feature ? Some people find it spammy. It that's indeed the case, then i'll disable it by default for all users

Not a fan, It would be spamming my inbox.
