Right in front of every thread title that has had new posts since your last visit.

Apparently this has been the best kept secret of CP.

For Chiefs discussion, there should not be megathreads. Every article that is posted about training camp deserves its own thread (most days).

FTR, my romantic life is not nearly as entertaining as it used to be. I do love how my "I have a date" thread sparked dating megathreads (after becoming one), though. :)

Okay, back to football...

If I were going to suggest subforums (with the main forum being Chiefs/football), then my suggestions would be:

Other Sports (and add a Royals subforum during summer months?)
Pictures
DC
Romper Room
Media Center (and I'd probably throw this in with "Other Stuff")
Other Stuff

Of course, that's JMO. I know that the Draft and Fantasy type stuff is popular as well.

If you roll over this http://www.chiefsplanet.com/BB/image...s/firstnew.gifbutton it says "first new post" If you click it it will take you to the first unread post. You are welcome.

Been here since the beginning and I never knew that.

I just don't have time to try and keep up with weeks-long ongoing discussion, and I don't really care all that much what most of the usual suspects have to say in terms of the off-topic bullshit.

This summarizes my thoughts well. I have no idea what's going on in camp this year because of daily discussion being in a megathread and past few years have been the same.

Megathreads have their place but Chiefs news deserves it own thread.

I'm shocked how many didn't know this.

Keep a running tab of what post you were on in each thread.

I like Megathreads. I keep up with the ones im interested in everyday. I like having consolidated information.

With that said, anything newsworthy should be made into a separate thread and should not referred to as a Q just because it was posted in a Megathread. No reason we can't have both.

This.

Holy shit, for real? Had no clue.

Late to the party but IMO megathreads SUCK. Thank you for the clear concise thread on Tuesday's training camp. A breath of fresh air.
