Today, when logging on the the MB, as I perused the different forums trying to decide which to enter, I noticed that the little “V” icon preceding Cafe Society was yellow while the others were grey.

Has this always been like this, and I haven’t noticed, or does it signify something special happening in that forum at that moment.

Just wondering.

If you mean that the “box background” is yellow, that means that there are new posts since your last visit. If you scroll down to the bottom of the front page you will see a description of the different icon colours.
