Navigation suggestions.
A couple of suggestions for consideration.
One thing I do like about "the other place" is that if you mark a forum as read, you get an option to return the the index or higher level in the navigation. What would be better still is if I mark a forum read, it automatically takes me back to the parent level.
Eg: I'm reading the NEWS forum and then mark the forum as having been read. Clearly I'm done with that. I would like it to return to the forums overview. Or if I'm reading state groups > vic. When I mark it as read, it should (to my thinking) return to the state groups parent page. Not sure how hard it is to implement but that's my thought,
Marketplace.
I open the marketplace and there's nothing there to interest me (or I've finished checking them out) but there is no option at that point to mark the marketplace as read. It can only be done from inside a classified. Really would be better if you could open the summary and mark it read if there's nothing there for me.
If I open state groups and mark all forums as read, it not only marks state forums as read, it masrks every forum on the board. So again the only option is to go into each state group to mark them.
Many navigation steps could be simplified here, of particular benefit to newcomers.
