It's really not necessary to browse trough the whole forum, just to see the newest posts.
(These links are almost at the top of the forum index page, to the right)
Of course they only work if you sign in...

But I never want to see "the newest posts". What I *want* is a link that shows me the posts (or at least the forums, and as I enter each individual forum shows me the posts within it) which I haven't read yet.. The link shows "posts since last visit" - so if I enter the forums, get interrupted by some external event and log out again immediately, then I no longer have any idea which forums/posts I need to go back to. These forum thingies will never take the place of an email list, which provides exactly that functionality so unobtrusively it's easy to forget just how important it is.

And, I think the forum doesn't have any way to check for updates (new posts) while you are logged in, unless I've just missed it. Is there a way to do that ?
