    Can you think of any features that would make Boards better?

    I think a notification system would be cool. It would be cool to get notified when someone quoted your post.

    A way to get back to your post on a topic would also be very handy. I can never remember which page I posted on and waste too much time trying to find my own posts!

    A thanks button on mobile boards.

    A way to hide your previous posts from people.

    A 'fcuk off and die' button-kinda like the ignore button, but more extreme.

    Quotes alert would be good. And a 'Well thats ****ing stupid' button next to the thanks would also be nice

    I'd love a "slap" button that - when you click it - it slaps a poster who you don't like in the face when they post something you don't agree with.

    If you click the arrow down beside the thread title it brings you to the last post you read in that thread.

    Instead of infractions and bannings, I'd like public floggings and hangings.

    That was closed. Ministry of Love instituted the "Help Desk" instead.

    No, when I say "Your Mother" thats what I mean. You see I'm not from Dublin so I can speak proper English.

    I want to be able to thank my own posts.
    And we need some sort of 'anti-thanks' button that can be used to cyber-bully newbies and women that stand up to sexism.

    If I want to find my post in a big thread, I click the number of replies, look down the list for my name and click the number beside it.

    Just do a search for your username. When someone quotes one of your your posts it will say "originally posted by Banji" at the top of their post, so a search for "Banji" will give a list of all your posts that people have quoted.

    Click on your username in the top right corner of the screen where it says "Welcome, Banji". Then click on the tab that says "statistics" then click on "find all posts by Banji" then just scroll down till you see the thread/post you want. Or open the thread you posted in. Then click the "search this forum" button, then "advanced search", then enter your username in th field provided and hit enter and it will show a list of your posts in that thread starting with the most recent.
