Hello,

In response to concerns about the Discuss section voiced on and off list, we made a few tweaks to how it works:

• Comments that are new since your last visit are highlighted in red. This should improve the readability of large threads.
• There now is an option to "Preview" when replying.

As always, let us know if you have any questions or find any issues.

Best,

Patrick

1 more thing before you go... it would be great if there was a way to mark all stories as not new.

best,

Tim

I'm sorry to report that it does not function correctly: Tom Moody and Whid can't be marked "all as old", they always reappear and probably think they are adding something new to their discussions
what's to be done ?

sorry to report that the "mark all as old" doesn't function for me
I read this board from 2 different PCs, I clicked "mark all as old" on one and that did wipe away all the red new tags
when I looked on the other PC some of them had reappeared
now that I'm back on the PC where I marked all as old they are still there...

The nesting limit is defeating the purpose of the format. In complex arguments with multiple parts that multiple people are responding to and remixing in different ways, if we can't reply past the fifth degree, then we're actually better served by the plain old email format, where we could be clear about the particular rhizomatic outgrowth of discussion we're getting in on.

Hi there,
Can someone please tell me the link to a call for "political art writing", or something similar like this?

Mine is not simply a linguistic concern since Freud had used the term “Ich” to refer at times to the self in its totality and at others to an agency or a part of that self.

Can you please block Joan Collins and his/her spam which is ruining the list-it all goes into my junk folder at present!
