Hello,

I'd like to suggest a new forum features - SUPER COMPACT

In SUPER COMPACT it would only show the title of first message in the thread
so I could easily scan all the different topics without going pages back.

This would be an awesome feature when there is a frenzy in the forum so we don't
miss sales, help requests, news and other more important info.

Just an easier view idea.

Just brainstorming take it or leave it.

Thank you for pointing this out. I've been on BL for 8 years. This past year,
I figured out a couple of "wanted list" tricks. Who knows how many other features
I have yet to discover.
