Jake, so what do you think in terms of how many views and how many replies before the flame icon shows up? I still don't understand the reason for it. I just find it annoying. You can easily see how many views and how many replies, and I would rather see the original icon with the original post. <img src="http://www.catsailor.com/forums/images/graemlins/tongue.gif" alt="" />
I think the 30-40 number sounds pretty good. I mean, I read most every post but there have been times most recently where I have to scan for some especially interesting stuff and skip the others just to save some time. As the volume on this forum continues to grow (which it has considerably in the last 6 months) it will be nice to have something like the flame indicate that the topic is very active. There will probably be a time (probably soon) where it will be difficult to read every post (without getting fired at work!).
