Can individual posts' date/time be displayed more prominently?
It used to be really clear at the top of a post but now it is grey and buried at the bottom. Sometimes either I am away from the forum for a while, sometimes a new post is made on an old thread, and I would like to be able to easily identify and skip to reading the most recent posts by checking their dates.
Every post that you haven't read yet since your last visit has a bright green tag that says, "new" on their top right side.
Not only that, but in each thread with posts you haven't seen yet, there's a button that says, "Go to First Unread" at the end of the page number buttons.
The way I catch up on new posts is:
1)Make a bookmark that says: Recent Posts | China Defence Forum
2)Click on a thread I want to read.
3)Click "Go to First Unread".
It's a LOT easier than what you seem to be doing, which sounds like looking up the time and date of your last visit, then manually comparing post dates until you find the earliest recent, then reading form there.
