Yes, a very common problem on SI forums since you can’t start a new non-reply post at SI from within a thread. You have to do that from the list of replies or otherwise outside it.

Causes many issues when trying to follow replies for a given topic when non-related replies are mixed in.

Been requested many times to be fixed over the years and never has been.

I came here to discuss an actual potential new feature for SI...

But, having just read the posts following yours (and thankfully not those prior) have thought better of it.

Apparently the only "new feature" discussion SI wants... on the New feature discussion board... is that about extending over the top political insanity until it dominates every thread in every unrelated subject board ?

And whose fault is that ?

Perhaps I'll come back with an idea... when I see SI Ron moderating the board... and see discussion by others focused on improving the board... along with proofs that SI actually cares... and has any real intent related to improving ?

Otherwise... perhaps consider renaming the board... and, to better reflect reality, consider rewriting the intro:

This topic is here to serve a repository for all new requested features and debate their merits.

Great improvements to SI are coming, and you can help contribute.

Thanks in advance for your thoughts!

No point in renaming the board. Politics plays a small role here, and anyone who tries to make it a big one is likely to get a warning and then a ban if they continue. It is mostly about SI (if not always new features) not politics.

OK, thank you for looking. I guess they removed it? Oh well...

I wish the "ignore" feature was thread specific. Now I have to turn it on and off, depending on the particular thread I'm browsing. Some posters make worthwhile contributions on stock threads, but I have no interest in their opinions on political chat threads. Be nice to have "ignore" be thread specific "set it and forget it", especially on my subjectmarked threads.

I just received a call from Dmitry. SI could experience some down time, due to circumstances beyond our control, Dmitry is on it.

Please be patient **if** outages occur.

Ron

Hope all went well applying the patches. The site seems to be running well from here.

Have a good coming week!
