I know there are a few of us who are guilty of constantly refreshing the forums. Why doesn''t gdnet automatically do that for us? It''d be so slick! It could update every 1,2,3,4,5 seconds. Although the server load would be increased....but still!

There''s a Firefox plugin that will do this (it may be part of Tabbrowser Extensions).

I know with Opera it''s within the browser which you can make it refresh it automatically after a certain amount of time.

And those who don''t want it, or are on 56k, or get epileptic seizures everytime they see those flashing "You are the winner!" ads on the homepage, or...

So dumb.

It could be made optional, Oluseyi.

Although I think I''d prefer a time frame in higher degrees, like 10, 20, 30..
