Hello,

I think it would be nice to see a system where when an admin or super mod creates a new thread, they have the option to set it so a userclass is forced to that thread once they login. It would also be nice to have a section below the first post in the thread saying who was forced to it so far.

you can use the Welcome Header hack that would display a specific message on the header ofthe site, based on usergroups (we don't have userclasses), so when you are member of that usergroup, you see the header message... the message can redirect to a specific thread...

it is a common system released a long time ago...

I don't want them to keep getting redirected though. I want them to be redirected once and then once they read the message they are good to go. Also if a member is part of two different usergroups (not userclasses, sorry

) and each group has an important message to check what would happen then? My guess is that only one important message will be displayed.

Also, with the method that you mentioned I don't think that I would be able to know who read the thread.

It is not a VB3 engine, just a parsed copy!
