This thread is a great idea! Can we please make the "New Post" tab on the right side of the website show more than the 5 most recent threads?
Always has been a bit strange to me how the Donate option is at the very bottom of each page, and has no other shotcut (that I know of)

Perhaps a more prominent way to access the builder applications or help forums?

I would love a "mark all as read" button somewhere. Maybe that exists already but I can't find it and it would be an easier way of clearing out post notifications.
I mainly say this as someone who doesn't always log on but reads the posts then when logged on all the posts are marked as unread.

also, can someone PLEASE either tell me where the IRC chat tab is or at least paste the link from the old website over? apparently it still works
Please change the text colours on the forums at least to anything other than Black and Grey, Red worked lovely before <3
Hey my dudes, I'm going to slowly go through the website and try and improve some things, make it more user friendly etc. I'll add a link to the IRC, make builder apps more obvious, spruce up the wiki etc. Aslanio what do you mean make the text red?

Hello, I've asked a couple of times before but I'm just going to request it again.
- Can we please show more than 5 "New posts"? Right now it doesn't take long before your post gets buried. I regularly check the forums (multiple times a day) and still miss posts.
- Can we please exclude builder application threads from the "New posts" overview? They clutter the overview and those that actually read them check on them regularly. The majority of the community does not read those threads.

I am, but that doesn't give me a quick overview nor does it always show them in chronological order for me.
Expanding it usually gives me an endless list of builder applications.

The New Posts section lists your unread posts across all subforums, including the apps. There's a button top right where you can switch to see all recent posts in a chronological order, including those you've already read. You can mark all posts as read, as well, which means your New Posts section will be empty. It offers you a cross link to the All Recent Posts thing, however. I don't think you can unsubscribe from sub forums.
Edit: You can unwatch individual threads.

Regardless of those options, I really don't see the issue in expanding the list at hand to make it easier for everyone to keep track of recent posts.
It is beneficial to everyone if recent posts are more visible, and it is hard enough to make people read the forums already. Having these extra 3 steps to see the recent posts doesn't really help.
It just takes one round of feedback on builder application for builders not even to realise there are new posts to check on, rendering the new posts overview with 5 slots obsolete.

increased it to 10. theres no way to exclude applications from the list at this time
