It would be good to have a wee number appear on the pm's when you have a message, just like a text on the phone. Not that I get overwhelmed with messages here but would still be handy.

Yeah those and the one on the left hand side next to the topic name and poster.
Maybe the left one would be fine, but with all of them it just looks a little busy.

Simon, many thanks for all your hard work.
without being critical, I find the members icons at either side of the subjects too much and makes it look quite cluttered.

Your views and ideas on forum areas and organization?
by Simon inthis may come as a shock to some people, but the current forum structure was kind of thrown together without much real thought and then evolved a bit over time.
there are a few things that particularly grate on me and areas where i don't think the subjects work particularly well.
'friends' is a bit vague and becomes a dumping ground, news & world events vs politics & current affairs is hard to decide sometimes, child abuse is a scandal but isn't contained withing 'scandals & coverups' etc.... with a new forum platform imminent, it's a good time to solicit ideas to improve things.

Where are the Forum Policies/Guidelines... and more
by Marvin Shilmer inive been posting here from more than ten years.
im not a prolific poster, but based on my ongoing participation i thought i knew participation policies, by firsthand experience if nothing else.
recently i had need to consult the forums policy and posting guidelines looking for position statements, definitions and explanations.

I do think it makes sense not to go off topic but having said that, it seems sometimes like topic after topic goes of in all sorts of directions but only certain ones are kinda told off for it, it's generally the slightly more tense threads that get that kind of attention. Maybe it's just me.

What evidence is there for the miracles of the Bible OUTSIDE of the Bible?
by punkofnice inok. this is something i've wondered about.. people of certain religions tend to use their own holy book as evidence for things in itself.
this seems very circular to me.
using the book to prove the book in my view is pointless.. i am not aware of any of the 'miracles' of the bible or the quran as having any substantial evidence outside of themselves to give credibility to the books themselves.. has anyone come across such evidence?.

It seems to me that the answer to your original question mate is none, there is none whatsoever.

Cofty, that reasoning is absolutely correct, makes perfect sense.
