Thad, Summertop and Fencer: What we seem to be talking about is the "Tree" approach to db's. I really like that approach and think it would be beneficial. It would seem you have options in dealing with new posts in existing "threads" or "branches:"

1. Expand all threads or "Open tree" so that you can see subject lines within a thread; or
2. Leave the tree closed so that you can only see the main subject line and put a counter next to the thread showing the number of new posts (similar to the counter currently next to any db which you have not opened and the like); or
3. Open only those posts on a db that are new.

In the end, one of the prob's that I see with the current system is that if there are more new posts than you can open (in my case more than 100), you will never know which are new posts beyond the first 100 because once you go into a db, it triggers that nothing is new. Therefore, when I go into the second page of a db, I never know how many of the posts are new posts.

In the end though Fencer, as one of my dear friends has said to me recently, when you are working on the game improvements, you are working on far more important things than DB upgrades. So, just because I am engaging in this discussion doesn't mean that I consider this my dearest want - I love it when you give us new games.

In that regard, I am with Kevin when he asks for Trax and its variants.

Also, I agree with Brian on the FAQ issue. It would be a great idea to use that for "resolved" issues. Sometimes, new members - like me - do not know which issues have been resolved.
