  This is about improving the Forum. I would like to see button where you can click and see all new posts since you last came to the forum.  Many  bulletin boards  (aka forums) have such a feature.

  Instead of having to click on each individual forum (i.e. community help, country club corner, game tips, bug log, etc.) you just click one button and all new posts regardless of  topic is displayed.

  You can use the "Active Thread" Feature as you scroll down on the right hand side of this forum.

  But I agree this forum needs to be revamped big time. It seems everytime we clean our cache's for game issues it also resets your Forum options to default which totally drives me insane having to choose the same option for each and every Title. There are way better forum formats out there and its not hard to do. The only thing is if they did upgrade to a better one all the old threads would have to be carried over.

  It is at least 5 years behind the times. Come on WGT, you can do it.

  Thanks! I didn't realize you could click on "Active Threads".

  Until it changes, you can sorta do this by bookmarking the Active Threads link. You'll see all the threads and the ones you haven't read responses to will be in bold. You can also bookmark the My Discussions link and use it the same way. 

  Not every post finds its way to the main forum as a topic and this way you can see them all.

  All of that info is great guys......But you cant get around the cache cleaning defaulting the view options. Would be easier to use a more updated forum type. If you want , do a search on google and you will see what I am talking about. This is something that should have been done in this forum/community a long time ago.
