When viewing the main forum screen, in the last post colum on the right, it shows the date/time and person who posted, but not the topic like other boards do.

IS there a way to have the "last post" colum show the topic or subject of the last post as well as the person and date/time?

All we see is:

It sure would be nice to see what topic was posted to...... and jump right to it with that right-arrow, otherwise, you click the arrow only to find you really don't care about that topic under that forum.

Good suggestion.

The problem with implementing it is that it would require extra database table joins when reading in the data with very large tables, which would dramatically effect performance coursing a delay in page loading and placing extra strain on the server.

But it will be looked into to see if there is away to add such a feature without it effecting the performance in this way.
