We have just added a cool upgrade to the Latest Threads page, which we call "Milestones."

Whenever a discussion thread receives a certain number of posts -- 25, 50, 75, 100, or any other multiple of 25 -- it is re-posted at the top of the Latest Threads page so more people can see it.

The Milestone threads are marked with a blue arrow so you can easily identify them.
