Hi Pinside,

The EPROM/Battery thing was a nice addition to the site. Thank you for taking my suggestion!

Another (perhaps more esoteric?) suggestion:

The drain thread feature is great. How about augmenting it with an 'end-date' timestamp--kind of like a "temporary drain" or a "Lazarus ball" thing?

The default could maybe remain "permanent" drain (the date would be a null in the database)... but the option to bring back the thread "from the drain" like a Lazarus ball might be handy.

Seems the feature could be handy in several threads where people have been waiting for a long time for news, but the thread gets bogged down with OT posts and so forth.

Just a thought.

Thanks!
Chad.

Kind of an auto-undrain based on a time/date you set. Maybe that's just hard-coded at two weeks or something. This would just be an addition to the regular "drain" function, except that it would have an auto-undrain date set when you drain--a date stamp.

Actually dealt with the specific problem already (using ignore) but it's unfortunate I had to do that.

Thanks guys.
