You see those folders to the far left of each thread title in a forum? Some are pink, some are yellow, some are on fire, and then there are those with a big fat black dot.

I understand that pink folders stands for an active thread with a new unread post, and one on fire stands for a "hot thread" but what's the deal with the folders with a big fat black dot? There are pink folders with a dot, normal yellow folders with a dot, and a folder on fire with a dot. So, basically, random folders have a dot.

I don't understand. What does that big fat black dot represents?


Any opinion is welcomed.

I had an answer, but then I was wrong.

[Agent Proto]

If that's true, then why do I still see most folders without the dot?

[Nait]

Dots are threads where you have a reply already.

Do those little black dots not signify that you have replied to that certain topic. That way, you can easily look at the folders and instantly tell which ones you have been active in.

Huzzah. *gains a new black dot*


P.S.

I curse you Nait for posting just before me. You make my opinion void.

HEY, you're right! Wow, I learn something new........ every once in a while.

[Nait]

Yeah, I was puzzled by that when I was making icons for Aiyon but then I said buggerit and made everything look the same.
