We know you have an opinion on how things should be run around here. These are suggestions for the forums, and the website.This forum is not a place to ask for suggestions to your own coding (or otherwise) problems.
monospace font-family for text areas for comfortable code editing. Most of the posts contain a code, sometimes in a large chunks. Monospace font would make easier to format the code.
another quick suggestion would be to add more 'view post since last visit' links on some of the pages like after you submit a post/reply or within each post.
I use that link quite often just to see what is new as well as to navigate the site.
