Wasn't quite sure where to post this but I have noticed that On the Home Page in front of some of the new threads there is a little red dot but others do not have one.

Does anyone know what their significance is?

Thanks,

John
 
I have no idea , but I just went and looked . All the ones that have dots , are threads I have not looked at .
 
Ok ive been going back and forth from threads to home page.....when I look at a thread the dot goes away. Then when someone posts the dot comes back...so I guess its showing you new pists tobthe thread even if your not folowing?
 
Sowsage Sowsage Got it! Thanks!

You are brilliant too!

So when you just posted this the red dod did not come back but I did get a notification like normal. So that confirms that if you look at a thred and don't post or follow its just a dot to show you there are posts you have not seen yet. ....at least thats what I have gathered so far. I could be completely wrong. ( ive been wrong a lot lol!)
 
You guys are just pure genius! Often wondered that myself. Damn, I learned something, now my day is complete!

I believe you have it. I had also noticed when I viewed a thread the red dot would go away, and then latter it would be back so I started looking to see if it came back when others had posted to the thread.
