Bob I'm guessing it works like iHub (Dave ??)

You know you click on a favourite poster's new counter number and it delivers you a stream of all of his posts irrespective of which board the post is on just like when reading posts nnn at a time.... no headers to click.....

Didn't we always go to a profile before when clicking the counter... (which was pretty lame compared to iHub for us paid ups or grandfathered (or both like me :o) and yeah it reset the counter but I thought we still had to click on each header to open the post... just like now...

I reckon Bob Z. could make it a little more elegant by checking the userlevel and redirecting the user appropriately when the couner is clicked..... this might not even have come up... BUT this is a marketing hook to get you interested in seeing what you could have... but it seems to be ticking off folks instead... win some lose some... I know I was mildly annoyed... but have already stopped clicking the counter :o)

Then I think well SI almost went under before because you got to make money to stay in business.. I post on stockhouse from time to time and the only board features I prefer there are 1) the threaded view from time to time... and the ability to easily embed HTML for charts etc.. Search ? wazzat ?

Might be a good idea
1) to have a few happy hours on SI like iHub had.... to folks familiar with new features...
2) to make the billing a little more flexible... ie.. add features independently... 20 bucks for everything OR 8 bucks to read the user posts like iHub 15 for the Advanced search ... I dunno... especially 'cause it depends on the individual .....
Personally the ability to 'file' public posts as well as PMs is a huge bonus for me..... much easier to save stuff you might want to come back to later... and it was a freebie .... shhh!!

regards
B.
