possibly I've got this wrong regarding the new
system of replying, but I don't think so..

I often go to the "new posts" to see what's new..
sometime a member has replied to an old post that
I didn't realise was here..and I can see it in the "new
posts" section..that's always good..

I just went to download something and used the new
system with the "thanks" button to unhide the link..
BUT...it doesn't show up in "new posts"..I think I will
have to actually "reply" to make that happen..

I've noticed that lots of members are not "replying"..
maybe they have nothing to say..but I'm thinking
that saying thanks or something doesn't cost much..

even though I come here and look at "new posts" there
is a good chance that I'm missing a lot of new posts or
old posts that I'm completely not aware of..

I suppose coding the "thanks" button to show the post
in the "new posts" menu is my point. (just wrote a novel)
