Unexplained icon in topics lists

Post by HHahn »

In every forum list, the message title is preceded by an icon indicating whether or not new posts have been submitted etc. t the bottom, these icons are explained.

But I often see an icon with a thick black dot in the top left corner. This special icon is missing in th explanations at the bottom. It seems to indicate that I am the last poster so far. Is that right?
Anyway, may I suggest that you add that one, too, in the explanations?

The dot indicates that you have a post in the thread, not necessarily the last one in the thread, but a post. Yes, it probably should be explained. but now you know.
