Wall suggestion - Joel Noble

The new Wall is a vast improvement!

I do have one small suggestion: I think that the links on the topic list could do without the "&mc=5" portion of the link -- it seems to do nothing more than encode the number of postings in the thread being linked. The software doesn't need it -- it'll figure out how many postings are there when you follow the link, even without it there. [try it by manually editing the links -- works just fine without it!]

So why do without it? Well, if your web design people leave the "&mc=" part off of the links in the thread list, that will allow our browsers to indicate for us which threads we've read before, by having them be a different color than the ones we haven't. Their position near the top of the main page will still alert us to the fact that the topic has recent activity -- no functionality is lost.

As it stands, since the thread link changes every time someone posts to the thread (by updatding the "&mc=" at the end), our browsers think it's a brand new link representing a topic it's never seen before, rather than being able to color them as something that has previously been read.

Thanks for everything!
