I am so new to this site, and where would I be without you, I think its great, I dont care about the thrills, or icing on the cake, as long as I can get sopport, and hopefully give it, then to me thats all that matters.

I think these forums are great help. I have found out loads of useful info that I couldn't find anywhere else. My posts are replied quickly and good advice too! Thankyou everyone smile

All I can say is finally! I must admit that most of the time I have went to cnet.com simply because CNET didnt have a UK based forum. It'g so good to see cnet.co.uk growing up!

Yep I totally agree! Finally found my lost brothers (and sisters) wink

yes I like it, so it`s a thumbs out from me.
The thing is tho-and sorry to ask- I`m trying to find out if you review software (comodo pro) and I wanted to know what you thought of it? I can`t find any reviews/ comments etc. for it on site tho?
Cheers smile

There are a few things that annoy me about the forum.

1. No private messaging
2. It seems to change its mind about how many unread messages there are in a particular forum
3. On a multi-page thread, if you type the page number and hit return, it takes you back to the main forum.

These are silly little problems but would make the forum so much better. The features above are even available in free, open source forums that I have used on sites in the past and this being a tech site, you should be in the premier league of this kind of thing.

Also, it's fine having smilies but it would be better if they were listed somewhere so you don't have to guess what key combos will activate them.

That's my 2p worth

Can we have a last post button or even a last page button for long threads like the Tip Of The Day. Also i agree with Red Mozzy wink

Thanks

Just come up with an idea, figured this would be the place to put it.

It would be nice to have a "Mark all topics as read" button of some sort. I use multiple computers to access the site and often threads that i've read appear as unread. Just saying, it would be nice to have the option.

I really enjoy the CNET.co.uk forums, but one thing I've noted about the CNET.co, forums is if you are interested in a subject, you can get notification of new replies sent to you, but apparently on the CNET.co.uk forums you can't.

Is that they're still to young, or what?
