| | Did I read that yet?
|
| Todd, I've heard some requests for this before, and I'd like to revisit it. Can we get some sort of flag to show whether we've read a message or not? When I go to another computer, flush out my cache, switch from Netscape to IE, etc, I can't tell if (...) (24 years ago, 20-Apr-00, to lugnet.admin.general)

Without ratings, whoever posts the most often gets seen the most. With ratings, I could (...) (24 years ago, 19-Apr-00, to lugnet.admin.general)

However that's just me, and I think that new users would like to have N (...) (24 years ago, 18-Apr-00, to lugnet.admin.general)

But on the other hand, with that many people reading LUGNET off the mail interface, I'd say canceling works _worse_ than on USENET. You can't cancel a message which has (...)

It's smart enough to know that if you're subscribed to both A and B, and someone crossposts to both A and B, to send you only one copy rather than two. (Of course in (...)
