Now I see it has been removed from the full site. That was stupid. That is the main way I browse. Why was that done?

Im not sure if you saw this in my post here...In the black bar at the top, where your avatar and name tag is on the right side, click on your name and a drop down will have it, along with other options.

Why is it there?

Why does the forum have two "New Posts" on the bars, and then bury what is the most useful tool?

I would say new users are unlikely to find it. This topic suggests many old ones don't look there either.

Ditch one of the New Posts and put it back. It seriously disadvantages the forum.

I used to find it easy on my Android. They really need to put it back, why was the need to change it in the first place?

Stupid to move it. Just put it back where it was already. Sheesh.

That option does not work the same way. "My Recent Topics" showed the threads you have recently been in and if there were any updates to those threads.

Okay, I finally found it.

Don't ya all get it? It was a well used option so they just had to remove it. Can't have people happy. Got to stir them up and see how many leave. Personally I think the site has got too big and has more whiners now anyway.

Yes, and it filtered out by the numbers of days etc.

It was far superior.

so ... why two "New Posts" and not one of each?

What happened to the recent topics button from the blue bar? I used this to keep track of threads I posted in and it was handy because you could filter by days. Please bring it back!

Default No more "Recent Posts"?

I was looking to continue tonight reading posts that I had participated in earlier this morning but the heading 'Recent Posts' is no longer on the Forums 'toolbar'....

Am I missing something?
