Thread Listings on Home Page

I have just opened now and see a new format for listing of threads on the home page. Shouldn't the link to the last post in a thread be either 'latest' or 'last'? I'm seeing it spelt as 'lastest' and I don't think this is a word??

I really miss the details that were on the old format - it was good to know which forum something had been posted in, to help decide whether to go and have a look. The title of the post is sometimes not enough on its own.

Any chance of reinstating this info on the new format layout?

Lastest?

I've been making picky criticisms of the new layout to Nadreg --- and I never noticed that one!

Even though first human tendency is to avoid change and I really try not to criticize any kind of change...but this one format is quite different...

I liked to see the number of people who had responded to the thread before opening it up..infact thats probably the only thing I am missing..
