Point of information question

Post by Hersheydmd » Sat Jan 29, 2011 6:36 am

When viewing the list of posts on the forum, there is an icon on the left side of each topic (a circle with an image of "text" in it).
Does anyone know what it means when the text appears to be moving/scrolling within the icon?
I figured out that RED means "you" haven't read it yet.
BLACK means you have read it.
A STAR means you posted the topic or replied to it.
Don't know what it means when it is moving.
Just curious. Thanks.

means there has been "lots of discussion" or it is a "hot topic." Not sure what the cutoff is, 9 or more posts?

I tried to increase the limit recently to 20, I think. It seems to only take effect as posts are added.
