The Last Post field in the forums should show the name of the person who last posted to the topic, not just the date and time. That way it will be easier to see if anybody has replied to the topic.

Just a suggestion

isn't already there?

It's there when you look a the overview of the forums. But that only shows the last 10 posts. When you go in to one of the forums, the list of topics only shows the number of posts and the date/time of the last post. Unless you can remember how many posts were there last time you looked, or the date and time of the last post, the only way to see if there is a new post is to open the topic and scroll to the bottom.

I guess I am new, but the list of topics on this forum show the ID of the last person posting.[

My mistake. Its shows the original poster. Not the last poster.

Set your A.org preferences to show the last post at the top of the page instead of the first post. Not what you were asking for, but some small help.
