New Post List Reduction?

XenForo 2.0 is out, and that particular addon will most definitely NOT be making an appearance whenever I finally get around to updating it. There are a few others that I'm waiting on before I upgrade the site, but that one for lots of reasons is dead in the water. Have to find a suitable replacement or wean you guys off it altogether This has to happen eventually. Not today but it will.

What kind of changes can we expect or is that known yet?

I agree, I like the 25 list best.

Personally I have liked the list as it gives a quick view of recent threads where someone might be looking for an answer or something that I'm interested in. I'm on several forums and this is the only one that I'm on that has this trait - it's handy. But I agree that it keeps myself from going into each of the individual sub-forums. I'd say though, that if the number of posts here were as high as forums such ThirdGen or YellowBullet, then the last 25 would need to be increased to the last 100 or more to be used in the same manner. And at that point the feature would most likely not be beneficial.

One thing here that I commend the admin for is the alert flag that identifies when someone has quoted or rated one of your posts. That is a very good feature IMO and this is the only forum that I participate on that has it.

I did notice the list being cut to 10. I'd recommend keeping it at 25 or eliminating it because 10 is not enough. My two cents

The page loads much faster in Private Mode if that helps with diagnosis....

As long as I've been here it's been 10... that I can remember.

I also like the 25. Would it be possible to split the page so the forum index is on one side and the Top XX posts is on the other?
