I HAVE CHANGED SOMETHING ELSE.
Two more things, actually, to make SHIT GO FASTER.

If anyone actually notices what they are, I'll be impressed, and more likely to listen to complaints about stuff that ISN'T THERE ANY MORE.

The ticker is still there for me too.

EDIT - It doesn't show on the main forum list, but it's there in General Discussion.

The little icons didn't seem to be wiggling..... but then I'm not sure if they were before I started reading this morning.

It's probably not that which you've changed then.

Yeah. No notification that you've posted in a thread or if there are > 15? posts there in it anymore.

I can't say I'm overly bothered.

Oh yes, the little 'dots' showing that you have posted in a thread are gone too. I thought something looked different there but couldn't quite tell.

I see your mother is a news ticker, and I miss the dots.

They were useful for picking out threads when presented with a load of unread ones.

You think I query the database to see what I've written?
I just use the forum :S

Never mind, I'll change it back. Give me a bit.

Some. The conclusion to which was "don't tell anyone next time".

Anyway, they should be back now.

Normals would have seen a message about re-synching the dotted topics. Turning the board on and off shows up in the log with the handy description "Altered board settings".
