Is it just my browser? DansDeals.com Hat Tips on the members profile  is not a hyperlink to the main site anymore.
Thank your lucky stars.

On a desktop. Chrome is not a hyperlink, but IE is a link. Weird.

Mine redirects to DDMS but not to the specific posts that received the HT. Did it ever link to specific HT posts?
That would actually be pretty cool to have that specific hat tip by the op click-able to take you to that hat tip received for the ddms post.

It couldn't be by specific post. The most it could be is by user.

If there could be variables in the URL linked, then something like:
http://www.dansdeals.com/index.php?s=%UserName%
Would return:
http://www.dansdeals.com/index.php?s=Lubaby
For me etc..

I think I saw this already suggested earlier in this thread, but it is so annoying to me that I will 'bump' it to bring it up again.

I really would like to be able to sort the list of posts in a forum by the date the threads were started. This way I could look at the top of the Deal Requests or Amazon Deals or other forums, and look at only newly discovered deals. Instead, I am forced to reread the same deals over and over due to new comments being posted on existing or even old deals.

Both sort orders have their purposes and merits. I just want to (sometimes) be able to choose 'the other one' to save time.

In fact the Thread Started date/time is not even listed on the forum topic list.

BTW, lately many of the bumps have been price drops.

Workflowy. You won't know what you're missing until you try it.

Is there a current setting where you if someone quotes you or tags you in a post, you can be notified?

Yes, it's been mentioned before.

Just a suggestion: On the boards where all threads are displayed and where it says who started each thread it should also say when the thread was started. This would be especially helpful in the Deals/Deal Requests board. With this feature one would know immediately whether a deal has (for example) 4-5 pages because it is a hot deal that just came up and is being discussed at length, or because it's a dead deal and it's just those who got it are discussing further steps some two months later etc. (Hope I'm clear enough with the point.)

And as TimT {who by the way seems to be going into retirement} :P  mentioned, it's been asked before that too.

Maybe we could make that in the two deal boards the title should always be editable, so if there's a price drop someone could update the title.

Another feature I'd like is the ability to see only specific threads on one page, sort of like a playlist I suppose. You would add something to "My Threads" and then with one click you could bring up all these specific threads.

That is also available on tapa where you can subscribe to threads.

Not in my tapa (I refuse to upgrade >:().

Regardless, this is something I'd use on a PC primarily.

Post in those threads, and they will come up under 'show new replies to your posts'.
