Old style new post menu - Nyx - 06-18-2021

I might be crazy, but I'm pretty sure I remember at one point the new posts menu had the listings originally as a red box to the left with bold text if you had not read the latest post, and if you had read it, it took the current style of a white box with unstyled text. I'm not sure when the change occurred (again, if it ever even did I might just be crazy or had a great userstyle or something) but to this day every time I glance at the new post section and get very confused when, to me, it says I've read every post. Until I clue in, which is a while. I might be a bit slow.

Anyways, biggest nitpick of my lifetime, feel free to vote on the poll for your opinion.

Are you talking about the Forum Stats Latest Posts section? With the little grey and white boxes next to each thread? This used to be different, and was changed to the newer simpler, cleaner look more recently.

Yeah that's it, glad to know I didn't imagine it being different.

As you guys noticed, we did change the icons. The old ones looked a bit tacky, so we changed them up. These should be easier to read.

I personally preferred the old ones, made it very easy at a glance to figure out what threads to look at and which I've already. I could just be extremely picky though. Curious to see what other people vote towards in any case.

Was discussed in Suggestions before. It's down to preference.

We might change it to something like this (with color-changer):
