Catching-up with Threads filled with one-liners cross-chat and smilies that doesnt contribute anything to the value of a thread can be a quite fun sometimes, but mostly I find it rather tedious and tiring.

 

What I am proposing is adding an user-to-user filter that will enable you to read thru a thread with or without all the off-topic/spam post. Adding 2 grouped radiobuttons, specifying whether the post is on-topic or off-topic before you post it.

 

Requires a little discipline from everybody but since we are all here to have a merry good time, that shouldnt be a problem, should it?

Well, since the new forum software has Outline view, you can decide to read specific posts in a thread based upon poster and title. Or you can skim the topic and skip two line posts.
