#224sort:
I want to be able to sort by date, by mod points, by poster
and of course if search is added, sort on my search result:
Views: count the number of time an news item was viewed and also allow me to to sort on this number
views can complement mod points, if an item is viewed like 1000 times and got 55 mod points and another was viewed 55 times and got 55 mod points, well, this is a nice indicator

#228I find it totally confusing as to how to post a comment. You really need to have some instructions, it is completely unobvious. I ended up posting the same thing three times because the comment never seemed to show up and then deleted the second and third ones.

#230When posting a reply to a comment, have the page center on your new post via an #anchor. This refreshes the other reply links on the page and makes it easier to find your place again on the page.
