There are a handful of forums in these ...forums that I never go in except to mark all posts in them as read, so that my forum index page has only yellow folders. I think it would be nice if there was a way to tell the system that you don't want to ever see the folder as red. However, on the off-chance that you do enter such a folder, I think you should also be able to see which posts are in fact new, so the red folders next to the individual threads should remain.

Going through the pseudocode in my mind, I think the easiest way to do this would be to add a table with two columns that keeps track of who's ignoring which forum, but it would still be quite the chore to get it working seamlessly. It's just something I think would be handy.

I don't know... I don't see this as being very useful.

I have no idea why this is necessary (unless if you hate seeing red).
