Lots of sites that also use VB Buletin have mouse over feature: when you move your cursor on the subject topic it will let you see first few lines of the thread (like a tool tip box). Have you guys ever thought of it? It is very convenient. Some members have difficulties creating subject line and very often you see "Help!" or just a car model.
Very often when I do not have enough time I just ignore those posts. The mouse over feature lets you right away know what the post is about (most of the times).
