Hello Laser Boy team.  I like the sub forums that you defined.  You spelled Laser Enthusiests Meetings wrong.

Hey I guess my member number will be below 10 eh? :) 
So James wanted laserboy forums and Keeperx wanted simple machines forum so now we have...  laserboysimplemachines?

BTW the first thing I thought was 'they didn't draw the light refracting through that prism'   hahaha  but maybe it's supposed to be a fulcrum.

Is there any way to be able to see all messages since the last visit with this forum software?

I didn't see that before.  But I tried it this morning and it didn't show any new posts.  It didn't show that there were new posts in this thread for instance.  Maybe it's me.  I'll try again later.

The "unread posts since last visit" doesn't seem to work.  I shut down IE earlier and then came back after lunch.  I tried the "Show unread posts since last visit" link and it didn't show any new posts.  Then I clicked on "Show new replies to your posts" and it showed those.  But there were 3 or 4 other posts that were made since my last visit that didn't show up.  I had to go in each subforum and open them up.  Maybe I have to log out between visits.  I will try that next.

Nope, still doesn't work right.  There are a bunch of new posts this morning and none appeared when I clicked on "Unread Posts".

I just logged in from a different computer that I have never used to connect to the forum and clicked "Unread Posts" and it showed no post.  But, that isn't true because I am responding to your new post.  I saw the Unread Posts thing work once so I know it does works sometimes.  I do have my settings set to stay logged in all the time since I don't like having to log on each time if that makes a difference.  I know on other forum software I don't have to log out for this feature to work, though.

FYI: I logged out between your new post and just logged in and your post showed up as an Unread Post. 

This bug reporting is kinda fun.  Kind of nice to turn the table for a bit.  :)

What are those milliwatt things for?  I have +1/-1.  What does that mean?
