We got them on the online members section and the birthdays section, but just a suggestion why not have them on the sub forums too? Example:

In the Rumble Strip we have four subforums:

The Comedy Corner
Local Gatherings
The Trading Post
Ask GTPlanet!

Dunno about anyone else, but I don't often go into those subforums, and it would be quite handy if I could collapse them, allowing the Rumble Strip topics themselves to move up.
 
No other opinions on this?
 
Why not just scroll down? Or hit the Page Down key?
 
It’s kind of difficult to create a logical way to collapse a sub-forum, because since you have to leave a bar to bring it back up, the bar would (ostensibly) take up almost as much space as the sub-forum listing itself.

You get a gold star for that one.

But I agree, it's not that big of a hassle and wouldn't really save that much room.
 
We also have several sub forums that haven't been used in months.
 
I don't see why being able to collapse all the sub forums would do any harm, I wouldn't use it, but I can see why people would like that feature.
 
I would use it. I can fire through my favorites, and can quickly see if there are any new replies with the bold thread titles. I can get through GTP in a couple seconds this way.

Except when I get to Cars in General, Rumble Strip and Premium, where I have to move the mouse and scroll down to see if anything new has come up.

I give this feature a 👍
 
I don't think it's necesary, but that's just my opinion. It won't make much difference.
 
I understand situations where this would have its use, but I am trying to mess with the default templates as little as possible for our new style and I don't think such a change would be worth the trouble. :)
