      Yes, that section ignores the filters but the "recent" link in the top navbar (the clock icon) shows recent threads and respects categories set to ignore.

        Perfect justification to ditch "Threads with Recent Replies" ?!

        No "help me" PM's please. Use the forum, the community will thank you.
        Edit : and where are the logs ??

          I kind of like having it there so people visiting the forum main page can get a sense of how active the forum is. If you are looking for a specific category or post there isn't anything you'd need down that low on the front page anyhow.

            Hey we non-US living people are humans, too

            Agreed - but if I can not read the language I see no point to see it.. It just reminds me of how inept I am in that I can barely read and write one language ;)

              @jimp I like it for the same reason, just would be nice to have it hide the international category.

              If it can't, I'd actually prefer it as is & I'll just skip over some posts.

                    Do you have to do this each time you log in or is it set permanently? Seems to me there should be someway for us, USA users, to block the International users posts like the old system did.
