From the home page, there is a big blue button on the right that says Recent Posts.
click on that and all the new posts will come up that have been made since you were last on-site.
Another forum plus is how many threads will show. The site default is five, which is good for those still on dial up.
I have mine set to the max, 40 per page. I limit my time on-line to about 2 hours a day, so this gives me the oppportunity to quick scan the posts and choose quality over quantity.
That option is in Settings (top right of page)
Scroll down and click on General settings, chose amount. Remember to click SAVE
There is no need to get a load of stuff clogging up your email either, unless you like it.
Click on your username at top of page.
On the right you can choose All threads you've started. If there are new posts to the thread since your last visit they will have a green arrow on the left.
