One major beef I have with the clan pages is that there is a link to the Private Clan Forum, however, you never know if someone has posted recently in it (unless you click on it). It would be really nice if you could display the latest threads right on the clan homepage rather than having to click on the link for Private Clan Forum to find out if there's anything new.

Just a very easy idea to implement that would vastly improve usability on the clan pages.

You can't just go to "My Private Forums" and look at all of your clan forums in the same place along with the date of the last post?

Exactly, Forums-My Private Forums.

Doesn't show the post, but does show the date and times.

Right, and I'm just saying, "one more cool usability thing" would be to show the most recent posts on the actual clan homepage. I'm not denying that there's other ways to get to it.

And what if someone is viewing the page who is not a member of said clan? Do they get to see the clan forum threads too?
