Not exactly "out of whack," but I don't use the "New Posts" or "Quick Links->Today's Posts" (which I believe are the same page) because I strongly prefer the list of threads containing new posts be ordered by Forum name rather than by date. That is, I want to see all the new posts in a Forum before I mentally shift perspective to another forum's subject area.Asher Kelman said:I am constantly looking at adjusting out threads and fora. Whenever you see something out of whack, let me know.

The Advanced Search page supports both limiting a search to articles posted since my last visit and ordering the search result by Forum, but requires something be entered in either the "Search by Key Word" or "Search by User Name" field. Searching for "a" or "the" seems a bit absurd, not to mention expensive (I suspect) in terms of server resources.
Have I missed something that changes the order of the "New Posts" or "Quick Links->Today's Posts" result? If not, please consider adding an option to the "New Posts" or "Quick Links->Today's Posts" result page that enables users to choose the order of the result. Since the Advanced Search already offers the option, the change would seem to require connecting the user interface to existing code, i.e., a relatively modest change.
