Then that's my suggestion. It would eliminate a LOT of redundant questions if we could search for a specific term within a thread containing a few hundred or thousands of posts. As it stands now, it's like finding a needle in a haystack.

You can search an entire thread. First click on "Text Only". After the thread had loaded, use Ctrl + F to search the thread.

Bring back the "Members Logged On / Lurkers" stats.

Or a means to find out whether or not a person is logged on...

that is already up in the OP as a suggestion - first one

Shiiii... My bad!

Yes! Thank you!

Looking for or requesting an expansion on the Subscribe feature. I would like to be able to do 2 things:

2. Be able to "subscribe" and/or create a watch list without necessarily having to post in order to do it. Currently, "subscribe to this topic" seems to be available only if I post and it seems cluttering and wasteful of resources to post an empty message just so I can subscribe to the topic. (Answered by srenna below, thanks srenna!)

1. Create a list of links to threads like "Subscribe" does but be able to choose per individual topic whether or not to receive emails. I know I could just bookmark the threads and that works OK but I like the format of the Subscription List and it would be great to be able to separate out the email feature.

Apologies if these features are already available, in which case my suggestion is to make them easier to find

You can subscribe to a topic without posting in it. Click on "Subscribe to Topic" which is located at the top and bottom of each page of a thread, to the left of "Print Topic" and "Text Only".
