Customer Success Testimonial: Recovery is Everything
This week we introduced "Track this Forum", a membership feature for commentards and lurkers on El Reg and reghardware forums.
Take this example:
http://forums.theregister.co.uk/forum/1/2010/05/26/captain_cyborg_cyberfud/
See the grey star? See "Track this forum"? Click the link and log-in to El Reg forums, if you haven't done so already.
Hey Presto! The star turns yellow and the thread you want to monitor will live in a box on the right hand side of your forums page for two weeks - (which is when we typically switch off comments on story posts. It's the only way we can cope.)
Also we have re-organised our forum front pages for easier navigation.

COMMENTS
Any Chance (3)
That when you click on the comments link you could get taken to the FIRST page of comments rather than the LAST page of comments?
Any Chance (4)
Any chance you could let me stay logged in for more than a few hours?
And make the vote buttons a bit more web 2.0 with some ajax so we don't have a pointless confirmation page?
Better Yet...
...how about dropping the paging of comments entirely.
