being the impatient guy i am, i took it upon myself to code something up. since (no offense to the vb guys) the forum subscription stuff is basically useless (nobody uses them at least on the tw forums), i decided to set up the index page so if someone has any set up it just shows the subscribed forums all on one page, regardless of categories, etc.

this presented me with a problem however, if someone were to mark a forum as a favourite - that would then be the only forum listed on their index and they would need to use the 'jump to' dropdown to mark others. thats not very user friendly, so i started thinking about other ways to go.

one way would be having a 'show only subscribed forums on main page' toggle in the users options.

another would be to have a forum favourites selection page where someone would check off the forums they wanted and submit to choose their favs (or none to get the normal view).

both would probably work alright, and im leaning towards the latter - but i'm not a exactly a god of userfriendlyness and i thought i'd see if anyone had a suggestion for another option, or a recommendation or anything.
