This is a good one to handle visual clutter with the Active Topics page

Snitz does this and everyone likes it.

When you go to the active topics page, the active topics are shown since the last time you visited the forum. This way you only see things that are new since your last visit and you're not re-reading items you THINK might be new.

A dropdown on this page allows you to override this and has choices such as.

• Since your last visit at [time/date] (default)
• Last 15 minutes
• Last 30 minutes
• Last 45 minutes
• Last Hour
• Last 2 Hours
• Last 6 Hours
• Last 12 Hours
• Yesterday
• Last 2 Days
• Last Week
• Last 2 Weeks
• Last Month
• Last 2 Months

You can see this on my own snitz board here www.paratrooper.net/aotw/commo/active.asp

oh.. and with this is an icon on the active page that allows you to reset your cookie to the current time essentially marking all active as topics as read so you start fresh.
