That feature is on the main page Parker.

Justin, I did read the whole thread although I usually don't. That is just something that I want to see added. I use it on SitePoint and would also like to use it here. I posted it in this thread since it was the newest and I figured it would get read more, because I do not like real long threads not sure if it is the same for everybody else too or not.

Anyway, I've never heard of a forum having a "New Thread" button on the main page, but I suppose it could be hardcoded into the forums. I don't really see why it's needed, but if we get enough demand I'm sure Chad would consider it.

Just don't request a "Reply" button on the main page. Now that would be impossible.

Maybe have a "View New posts" link on every forum so that people just click on that.

That would be pretty simple to implement. That was what I had in mind.

I beg to differ....

Theoretically, a "post new thread" form reached from the main page could have a dropdown menu of topics to choose from.

Now maybe that's not a feature of the vBulletin software this forum uses, but I did say "theoretically"!

I agree. I went through a very brief period of stupidity.
I will not let it happen again.

I "New Thread" link can't be put on the main forum page because there would be no way to determine what forum you want the post to be posted.
