Yeah, even seeing it written out I'm not gettin' how that's supposed to be better than VAT.

Get back on the toilet Elvis.

Yup - I tried it the other way this morning - I'd have to pour through pages and pages of stuff. View Active Topics is all I seem to have time for, after going through all the subscribed threads in my email, of course

Still not sure if that's any better for me - when I click VAT, I scan down and look for any threads (that I care to view) that have the little triangle symbol at the beginning of the thread title. No triangle means nothing new to see. If there is a triangle, I click that, and it takes me right to the first post I haven't read. Lets me scan quickly for "hot" topics, and doesn't require me to be fully engaged for long period of time.

Still, will try the other a bit more and see, but I'm still not convinced.

Fuck triangles.

Educate me - why is that better?

You don't have to see threads that you have already read that don't have any new posts. Why look at a page full of threads you have already read that don't have any new posts?

This ^^^^
Say your are reading the newest threads.
When you refresh, you will only see threads that have new posts you haven't read yet.
If there is nothing new in a thread you have already read - and you won't even see it again until there is something new.

Every time you refresh, you are only seeing threads that have something you haven't read yet.
