Ability to tag favorite posts. Say you're digging back a few years for some mapping help or a particular topic, you can flag it as a favorite, add a keyword or 3, easily accessible in your Account page. 

You could set a range of posts, like #234-263 etc. 

i'll add it to the list 

I've always been bothered by the fact that you could never link to the 'last 25' posts of a thread externally. Such as, if I wanted to link to the Speedmapping thread in general, but wanted to ensure that the link only went to the last 'page' of posts. 

good point. 

RSS feed(s). 

But what's the point? Even if I created a feed, nobody would realize that it even existed. 

Why wouldn't they - surely you would link it somehwere for all to see... or are you saying RSS is so underused it's not worth it? 

go to the news page. 

That brings me to news_rss.php which Firefox just wants to bookmark - but where is the actual .RSS feed that I could add to a reader? 

news_rss.php 

index.html 

You failed to understand. The news_rss.php which Firefox just wants to bookmark actually works fine as it is a proper rssfeed. 

proper rssfeed.

Thought it had to have .rss or .xml extension 

I'm not sure that it does, but I'll find out. I can change the extension if necessary. 

the "news archive" link doesnt seem to be working, at least for me. : / 

There seem to be a lot of complaints from some people about not being able to load certain pages, such as the entire general thread, or the archive threads.

I wonder if some proxys/ISPs/something else have some sort of max page size? The news archive is 313K, maybe that's too big.

Can you view the discussion archive, or "all posts" from any large threads? 

access the News Archive or View All Threads; I get the std "page cannot be displayed". 

from beginning seems to at least start loading properly (I didn't wait for all to load). 

i've been assuming it had to do something with the total page size. perhaps the the cause is something on the pages themselves, such as a special character that breaks the page. Could this be related to the default character encoding that browsers use, maybe? 

Maybe it also have something with the navigator configuration: I have firefox at office and at home, but as example, at office I can't view all the News archives when at home it is possible... and my personnal PC is not a 'running' machine.... 

what happens if you try this link?
http://www.quaddicted.com/webarchive/www.celephais.net/board/view_all_news.php

Or try downloading the page with something else than your browser and open it then. 

It works fine... but from the Func_ link it crashes claiming:
