Mouse over "Profile" on the top, and go to the "Account Settings" option.  On the new screen, there will be a sub-menu under the top-level menu.  Mouse-over the "Modify Profile" button near the top, and select the "Look and Feel" option.  There's a checkbox for "Don't warn on new replies" ... check that and save.

Any chance that a compromise option could be reached?

I like the feature especially in Timewasters where you are generally responding to the previous post. However, I agree it can be annoying in popular threads such as transfer and matchday ones. How about when it comes up you could have the options... "Post Again (would do what it does now)", "Do Not Post" or, a new one, "Force Post on" when it would just put your post on as soon as possible and you woudn't have to keep pressing post again?

Is this possible?

I doubt it, but ask Martin. He's the main man.

So why not turn the feature off to stop people asking this question again. I never seen those request in other forums.

So why not go to your profile and turn it off yourself?

By the way, it's fora, not forums. If you've not seen this before have you ever thought that it might be a different system?
