Description of the idea: Remove the message notification that "XYZ has replied to a new thread in XYZ"
Why should this be added?: The shoutbox often gets flooded with replies to threads, which pushes messages and conversations further down. There is already a recent activity box to the right that shows the most recent replies or new threads created. We managed to remove it a few months back, so that the Shoutbox only showed messages that users had put in themselves. Also I feel new players are more likely to engage in the shoutbox if they see conversations happening there, instead of just replies to ARs.
What negatives could this have? : Some mobile users have to scroll to the bottom for recent activity instead of using the shoutbox?
*Other additions: Perhaps still keep the created a new thread notifications, but just remove the replies.
*Images: Stop shoutbox looking like this, despite there being the exact same information just to the right of shoutbox.
(Yes I use light theme, deal with it)
