I'm sure this is a common occurance that peeves many users.

Problem: When I hover my mouse over, say "Rec" and scroll down to say "Motors", then when scrolling to my desired location my mouse gets adventurous and moves out of the remit of the scroll down menu - thus destroying all my hard work. (Worse again when my hands arent steady after a hard evening in the pub or I'm using a laptop scroll pad thing which is hard to control at the best of times).

Solution: A customizable time delay on the "time to live" of the forum drop down menu. When a mouse over occurs, and moves off, instead of immediately disappearing, it still exists but dims for a moment before being "un-salvageable" by the mouse going back over. Likewise with the sub-forum 'pop-out' menu's.

Anyone's thoughts on this? :pac:
