Is it possible to leave the new posts up for at least 24hours?
I log in frequently and still find that I have missed posts that have been posted that same day.
To check this I have to look on the main Board index to find if something has been posted, open that forum, scan the topics for the right date then decide if I want to read it or not.

New posts dont get archived at all by the mods, except for the for classifieds and that is only done after a couple of months just to keep the classifieds current.

Sorry, archive wasn't the correct term. What I am talking about is removal from "view new posts" section.
This seems to be done at different times. Sometimes there are 20 to 30 active threads on new posts while at other times there are only posts within the last few hours.

We don't do that either.
Maybe Wishes or Sam might have more of an idea why that happens.

It's to do with the age of the cookies and the time zone of your machine. Haven't bothered to work out the exact logic but it seems to be related to time of day and hours since last visit.

I thought the "View New Posts" showed you anything since you last logged in. Am I wrong?
