I too forgot about the use of the Quick Links : I had never tried looking there.
Also, a good caveat about the need to look at ALL new threads while logged in. I assume that means once
a member has clicked the Quick Links ? If not, then the number of threads will just accumulate until the member does
click on it ?
Then vanish after one look at Quick Links ?!

That was useful to learn from Xenondrum's experience, due to the fact that he seldom logs in.
He probably hears all about Euphrosynos Cafe developments and news as it is. He doesn't NEED to check in himself !

I notice also that the Notifications feature is not working perfectly. Sometimes it will say "2 Notifications". I will go to both threads but one will remain still active, so that it keeps turning up every time I look at the number of Notifications. Not a big problem, but it is not quite as smooth a process as it seemed at the outset.

We can live without the email notifications. That is not worth Anastasios' time to fix especially since it sounds like such a ponderous task.

Even if you do not click New Posts, those posts will disappear from that link as soon as you log out, because they will no longer be considered NEW.

Lord Jesus Christ, have mercy on me a sinner.

right, I am already getting the hang of not signing out or closing my tab on my browser until I have checked all the new posts and responded to them as I might like to.
