1) I don't believe I have that issue on my end.
2) A quick refresh of the page works for me.
1) it could be a similar bug as the one for polls on DDMS (something to do with the filters)
2) good point, another step but still worth it

As for the suggestion, I'd recommend opening the link to the thread in a new tab, and closing that tab when your done. That way you would still have your original list. (Alternatively without the need for using a new tab, after clicking on the first thread, instead of hitting show unread replies again, just go back a page and it should have cached the previous page with the full list)
Good idea. Thanks!

This has probably been requested many times before, but I'll ask again.
Can we please have a politics board separate from JS, and posts won't either count there?
It's really annoying to step over all the politics threads.
PLEASE @Dan PLEASE!! it's not really a topic to "kick back and talk about anything worthless."

If I had to guess, these were probably asked before, but oh well..

1. Can there be a setting to be notified anytime you're quoted (or is there a way to do that now)?
2. It would be cool if hat tip posts were linked to people's profiles, not just the count.

I'll let the professionals answer this question

You can search Dansdeals.com for a person's username and you'll get a list of the hat tip posts.

Ya, I know. Just seems like a feature that shouldn't be too hard to tie into one's DDF profile.

Maybe it's a functionality that can be added?
I, for one, don't continuously follow every thread that I post in, but if someone is replying to my post, I'd want to know (I usually just make sure to check back for the next day or so).

@mods can we aggregate all the political threads into it's own board (where posts don't count like JS)
I wanted to thank @Dan and the team for getting this done.

It would be cool if hat tip posts were linked to people's profiles, not just the count.
On a similar note, but even easier - maybe the "posts: 123" on the side of every message can be linked (just like "total likes: 123" is) directly to that user's posts. Just a shortcut instead of clicking profile and then show posts, it would make it one click.

Spoiler tag (creates text that is visibly present, but not readable unless
clicked on, allowing each reader to see it only if/when they choose to).

Post in small font size and in white, and only if someone clicks on the quote button will they see it clearly.

If I hadn't clicked Quote, I wouldn't have seen your demonstration.
1 tag is more efficient than 2 tags and "Quote post to see spoiler."

User Likes pages having "Your posts liked by others" as an unchanging part of their format is a bit strange.

The ability to moderate your own thread once you've reach a certain post count.

Can we implement a feature to be able to follow a thread without having to post in that thread?
