We've added a new a new option to the message boards that allows you to view a combination of all the topics, similar to the old message board. There are a few things of note, however:
A) In order to make this work, we've had to add new code when someone posts a message. Since older message do not have this code, they might not appear in proper order on the new Mega Board. This applies to old messages only, new messages should appear in the order they are posted, no matter what topic they are posted in.
The new topics and new Mega Board work we've done in the last few weeks have a lot of complex code working in the background. We did a fair share of testing, however if you notice something that doesn't work quite right, like a reply or message disappearing for example, please let us know immediately. Meanwhile, we will be backing up the message board data more frequently for the next week or so.

Here's another idea, to help people find messages. For those users that are blogging, allow an (optional) sidebar on the blog, which contains links to (recent) messages on the message board that they have either made or commented on.
That way, when you are reading someone's blog, you can also see their latest message board activity.
Of course, it's important to make this optional, as not everyone may want to do this.
See the link for a very quickly crafted dummy page, as an example.

Heh - don't thank me, I'm just brainstorming - I'm nothing to do with the SYD development team, although I am involved with my own (nothing to do with diet) website, which is where I get my ideas from.
Thank the nice developers, if they decide to implement it, or something similar. I have to say I am very impressed with the recent developments.

I love the new Mega Board as well as the option of choosing just one when I'd like to. What a great idea! Thanks. Kind of like having your cake and eating it, too. (couldn't resist)

Love the new board. I do have a suggestion, and it's one that I've thought of before in passing but never thought of it as a request. It would be so nice if we can flag, or favourite, messages that we'd like to reference later.

I would like to see a feature that when there is a post that we have all the comments collapsed and hidden, there is an alert to tell us that there is a new comment added to this particular post. That way we wouldn't have to open up the hidden comments unless we see there is a new, unread, comment. Kind of like when we get new comments to our blogs...it tells us how many new ones we have unread or pending approval.

I'd like to see the Message Boards be able to use HTML, so that we can Post youtube videos, Or quotes, or Stories that we've seen. Instead of directing everyone to our blogs. THX
