Thread List : Purple flagged items distracting from thread titles
The main thing here is surely the thread title, the extra purple coloured flags for New or Poll etc just distract the eye, partially because they are all over the shop based on the length of the thread creators name Can those flags not be in another column, further to the right, or even in the current 'Most Recent' column…

Citizens Advice Bureau forum - get rid of it
There have been no posts possible since 2012. All the info there is well out of date. It wasn't that good when it was open. The new forum is a good reason to get rid of it.

Multifactor Verfication (MFA)
I've started using 2-step verification / multifactor verification more for my various online accounts. Have the forum admins considered allowing users to use MFA for this forum as an extra security measure? For those who want to learn more here's a video about what it is https://youtu.be/ev1zOHHNLgY

Using the "old" green version
Been using this happily since the new blue version came out, but now I can't get it to work. The "latest version" and the "old version" in the Advanced Settings are now the same - just the blue version. Is this now permanent until the forum is updated? *edit* Sorry to anyone who is now confused. I posted this thread before…

Ability to see, at a glance, which threads I have contributed...
I think this must be me not understanding the functionality of the new forum. But how do I see, at a glance, which threads I have participated within? The old forum would clearly indicate which threads I had posted in. I am hoping there is similar functionality in the new forum. Thanks

Why is there no preview when hovering anymore
One of the things I like on the old forum was the ability to get a preview of the original post by hovering over the title. Allowed you to see if you were interested in it before clicking on it. Does not seem to work anymore

Please turn the ability to "thank" posts back on in Discussion Time/Money Savers Arms
Cmon why has this been turned off for Money Savers Arms and all the sub boards like Discussion Time? It's available everywhere else on the forum. It is really detracting from the experience of being a regular poster in there. Fights did not break out over who thanked what !!!!!!.

Hate the multi post quote.
Hate the multi post quote. Try and respond to one line and what you are responding to is buried in a stack of quotes often hidden behind "show multiple posts". Well done, you've made a functional function dysfunctional.

Bring back the Thanks button please,
I think threads will get un necessarily long with people posting thanks along with quotes It seems a bit childish when all the other forums have them (or the ones I've looked at) and DT doesn't Oh and bring back the smileys , they are emoticons , to express emotions in pictures .

Turn off all bookmarks?
Hi I recently randomly started getting loads of emails when people are posting on the forum. I haven't logged in for some time. I appear to have 87 pages of bookmarks I haven't set. How can I turn off all bookmarks or at least turn off the emails when people reply to threads? Thank you.

MSE and Facebook
After reading the article about OVO's accountancy problems I went on to read the comments. After the first few there's a notice on the line of "load more comments". Clicking on that brings a pop-up that invites me to allow FB to track me. I don't like FB, I'm not on FB and don't want to be. But clicking on Don't Allow…

Bug with browser back button
Here's a hilarious little bug. 1. Click on a multi-page thread you've not read before. The URL is #latest. You've not read anything before, so it shows you page 1. 2. Read page 1, click page 2. 3. Realise you need to re-read something from page 1, press your browser's Back button. You're now looking at... page 3! Because…
