I find this feature very useful on other forums, but on here it seems to just take you to the last post (there is already a feature for this!). Is there anything you can do James (or whoever!)? Basically if I could log in -> view new posts -> go to first unread post it is very useful, saves alot of time faffing around trying to work out which ones you have and haven't read. :D

Also, I would like to be able to add myself to my buddy list if possible, because no-one else wants to go on it. :(

It works fine for me...

And I'll go on your buddy list if you want ;)

what does the buddy list actually do?
Go into user CP and it shows which of the guys on your list are online and you can send them a quick U2U easily.

you can see whos online easily enough on the index page.
Id say the buddy list is just a useless feature.

Not if you keep the CP open all the time ;)

Anyway it came with the new Forum.

Alternatively, you can use MSN and you don't have to remain on a page on here!

Yes but this is for people who don't have MSN and is quite useful if you put all the managers on WCC on your list so you can make offers easily.

It seems to work when the last unread post is on the last page.

The effectiveness of this will depend on how popular the thread is and how many posts per page you have :)

It's working all the time for me now, even if it isn't necessarily on the last page. Still I might change my settings so that I only have one page... I dunno.
