Not gonna happen, We are a GUN forum, and that's out #1 focus! With all the negative news, rona, masks, racism, BLM, and other Non Gun related topics, the system is completely flooded with crap threads which seriously detracts from what this sight is all about! Think of it this way, doing a google search, do you want one of the B.S topics to come up and bring people here, or only Gun topics? You need to look at the big picture of this sight's mission, not your personal tastes! We staff have enough on our plates chasing all the Crap threads and keeping things in check largely because new folks joining are brought here for off topic crap and they dive right in to the discussions, often with out even a cursory read of the rules!
Would it be nicer for the user to let the user set which sub-forums they wish to see in "new posts"?
I agree with other members who would like a user configurable new post section. Is it possible? Maybe it could be added as an option for supporting members?
There already seems to be a decently robust Advanced Search feature...is there a way that we can save searches to our own, personal "new posts" tab?
I'd love to shut off the classified ads for the new posts button. At times the first two pages are nothing but one guys ads.
How does that work? If I click to watch a whole sub forum would I get a ton of alerts?
No joke. I finally got my settings to stop sending emails. I still get some from older threads from an update or two ago I must have participated in. Can't quite figure out how to stop those.
I'm not 100% sure that keeping a sub forum off the front page will keep it out of Google.
In fact, I'm sure that's not the case. It's how necro-threads happen.
Honestly, with all the BullSnot threads that have nothing to do with Guns, this is a most welcome change, and I'm very much a fan of!
It's so much nicer to NOT see all the Crap threads popping up in the new posts or new threads sections, and frankly, I wish that stuff would all just go away!
BLASPHEMER!!!

Wow, man, that's harsh. I'm sorry for your loss. Really.
I'm gonna hafta remember that "coming to JMB moment" comment, though. Can I borrow that?
Well, I think that the mods here are pretty on top of things. Why, just tonight, we had a guy booted after being here barely over 24 hours with over 50-some posts.I don't know if a more restrictive New Member process would be appropriate or not...

In his short tenure here, he managed to piss off just about everyone (me included, and that is no small feat), and finally incurred the wrath of at least one of the mods.
I never even got a chance to get my popcorn and settle in for the show...
I loved how you just came out and said it! I had called him out earlier in the day on another thread, a wee bit more sublimely than you, but it got deleted.
Guy was clearly a sealion...

I've never seen a n00b poke a moderator bear so much so soon! It was all over in a flash, I never even got a chance to get my popcorn and settle in for the show...
