I've also noticed that when you're in a forum menu, you can click on the number of posts in a thread to see who's posted there, and how often. Very useful when trying to figure out who's still in your RPG, or when deciding whether to read a thread with an intriguing title...

I haven't needed to use it yet, but I think I'll really enjoy being able to search within a thread without having to bring up the little "Find" box (ctrl+F), and also being able to make use of all the new and spiffy search options!

Something random and quite funny that I found:

Last active in '69, eh? Considering the poor dude registered in 2002... Hahaha O well, I thought it was a funny glitch

I noticed that there is a little coloured dot which tells you if someone is online or offline. Also, there is a calendar feature.

I love the little white dot that tells you whether you've posted on that thread- it's so handy. No more wracking your brain to remember whether you posted on a thread months ago and forgot about it!

I have discovered something that I think is totally nifty. When you paste something from the BDs to a word document, the pasted word shows upon the document in the font and size you have set on Word. Before, the word would copy in the BDs font and size and I would have to change it. Now, I no longer have to do that.

Cheers,
