What a great feature!

I have just recently caught on to the "similar threads" at the bottom of each post.

Is this something new? or have I just missed it until now?

I don't know how you can miss it if you were used to the older style. Sticks out like a sore thumb.
A lot of people don't scroll to the bottom of the page.

I use quick reply nearly all the time because I'm lazy so I guess I would probably notice it more.

I often use quick reply, but didn't notice until someone posted a thread about it. I don't often scroll far enough past the quick reply box, just get it onto the bottom of the screen, so didn't notice it there.
 


Funny. Below "What a great feature!" thread there are no similar threads listed :smile:

Hehe, that's one of the great features, it brings up unrelated threads that you can read!
