That's Johnny- and you'd know all about it if you'd been "attacked".
Pffft...

How do I get back to the category view?

I foolishly changed to the old view to remind my self what I was missing.

Thanks - i got there by trial and error.

I think I'll use this as an effective "time management tool".  I'll set times when I'm allowed in certain zones...

when im feeling like a good laugh a debate, or just a look i click the list favourites listing.

An indication of what thread was posted to last might be a beter use of the space than "Last Poster".

Done. You can now get to the latest thread within each category from the category index.

I mostly lurk rather than post, but I kind of like it the way it was.

You won't find a bigger tooth fan than me, but surely variety is the spice of life? If you don't like off-topic threads, then ignore them

I'm actually finding the category view quite handy now.

Just a minor niggle: For some reason when I click on the link title (as opposed to the category) I don't get to see teh links to other pages of a link.

I'd also make the minor suggestion that the categories be ordered by most recent post rather than alphabetitcally. It seems a bit weird that admin is always at the top.

It's probably never going to happen - the boards code is way to entangled with the code that makes the rest of the site work - for instance you have to log in to post on the board or vote on a  prog, and the same user IDs ae used for both.

If Invision has any features you'd really want to see in the 2000ad board you could try posting them under "suggestions".
