"Mark threads I posted to:" Display Setting does not work/save

Recommended Posts

In Display Settings, whenever I change "Mark threads I posted to:" from "No" to "Yes", then save it and exit, it does not save this setting (meaning that it does not mark the threads I posted to, and that next time I check Display Settings, it will say "No" under "Mark threads I posted to:", even though I had changed it and saved it as "Yes").

That was a feature that they turned on for a while (it was very handy) but which started bogging down the system as time went on, as it has to keep up with hundreds of users and thousands of threads. So they pulled the plug on it and disabled the feature. I guess that they didn't remove the profile option, but it's smart enough to know that the option is disabled, so it won't allow you to turn it on.

I'd like to have it back. It was a handy way to jump to the threads in which you were participating, without having to remember the names of every thread in every forum.

The User Titles (Newbie, Pooh-Bah, etc.) that denoted the number of posts each user had turned into a tidal wave of post-whoring which was out of control.

Then came the marked post feature. It was really handy. But, people figured out they could use it as another form of personal PW glory, and went nuts PWing. This also added to the bogging down of the system.

I would love for that to come back - it's handy as a tool for Moderators.

Another feature I wish would return is the repack calculator with email reminder.
