WhiteTiger -> Notice of new posts (11/15/2010 18:41:08)
|
This is an idea that is in-use on the EpicDuel Forums and I feel that is should also be implemented here on the AE Forums aswell.
It's basically a little notice of all new post(s) that comes up when you press "OK". If there are no new posts before yours, then your post will be posted as usual. If there are new post(s), then the new post(s) will appear at the top of the text box that you type in to post a message.
How this is useful is that sometimes, you click "Post a Reply" and no one has posted yet. But say you take a bit longer than usual to type, or you had to find a link on a different website and someone has already posted something similar to what you were going to post. You wouldn't know that right now and then when it redirects you after you press "OK", you find out that 1+ people has already posted similar things. If there was a notice of the new posts before you, then you would know that someone already posted what you were going to post so you wouldn't have to. If you still want to post, you can just press "OK" again and it will post like normal, unless someone else posted, then the notice would come again with the new posts. This is more useful on question topics so you don't need to post the same answer 2+ times.
Now, if you didn't follow along with what I just said, I have some pics of this from the EDF:
