Well as you all notice the Recent Posts Box is a bit small and doesnt contains even half of the Recent Posts that we used to see in the last forums theme.
I personaly think that comming to the soldat forum and look at the Recent Posts Box and find only 6 Recent posts is kinda not enoth..
i miss a lof of new posts and stuff.

anyway my point here is to make the Recent Posts Box contain 10 or more new posts and not only 6

Would it also be possible to have a Recent Posts box added to the forum page, in addition to the home page?

I think at the bottom, the recent posts should be limited to 5-10, it takes up too much space. :|

And one of my 2 complaints is fixed. The other is that when you try to click mouse 3 (scroller) when you are hovering on text, the scroll thing doesn't come up.

That sounds more like a browser issue (?)

If the text is a link to another page, mouse 3(wheel) will open it in a new tab(Firefox/opera).

If this isn't the reason, the scroll thinger works perfectly for me, in Firefox and Opera.  :|

LtKillRoy, what browser are you using?  I suspect IE would cause a problem like you're describing because it is probably barfing on the CSS formatting and being like "I can't scroll on that!" or something.

Stop using IE or get used to your browser not working in a consistent manner.  You're the 3rd person to have problems with the forums stemming from IE being inconsistent and not obeying standards.

Could also be that beta browser(forget name) everyone seems to be downloading. :x

I should have mentioned that the only people having problems with something weird happening on the new forums in their browser are IE users.

You mean Chrome? I highly doubt it. It's no where near as retarded as IE is and actually tries to be compatible with web standards.

Really, LtKillroy. Use something other than IE. If you don't like Firefox, try Opera.

Did you ever manage to get Soldat Forum's browser usage statistics up?
There are other worlds than these
