Hum... I see what you say... well... partially, I think I am missing something (this week I havent been able to really follow all threads and I guess I somewhat missed on this).
So when you speak about bringing up a forum that has several thousand threads .... I gues you are speaking of postlist.pl/.php, right? So, isnt it doing it anyway when you go to postlist? I mean... giving this option once it has just been done anyway doesnt save me that much time... maybe I would have to be a user at a board where there are at least 400 new posts a day... I dont know... maybe there is something I still dont see. []/w3timages/icons/crazy.gif[/]
It just seems to me that it would not really add to a better user experience to have this option (active threads...) at my forum, and at just about any forum with less than 50 posts per day. I dont think I would use it here as well (and its more active than my forum)...
Any possibility it could be an option? If not dont worry, I know how to comment it out []/w3timages/icons/wink.gif[/].
