symbols next to topics
This question has always bugged me. What do the symbols next to topics mean? Sometimes the letter is orange and sometimes its more of a yellow with an arrow. What does it all mean?

Scroll down to the bottom of the forum display page: https://www.bikeforums.net/forum-suggestions-user-assistance/ , there is a icon key.

Joe also, what makes a light bulb flash and titles bold? It really helps if the newer ones were in bold and the lights were on for the topics that had convo. The thing is that sometimes when I reload the page (or the forums) all the bulbs are white and all the titles are unbold, and wheni go to view new topics its says there are none when about 2 secs ago I saw like three pages.
Oh and why does
turn to this :d It really is annoying.

Why are some folks usernames red and some black?

Red = User is logged in
Black = User is not logged in
AND for those who want a tip if you didn't already know, when posting it is quicker and easy to hold down Alt then press the letter' 's' when submitting your post. It saves going back to the mouse and havn't unessesary clicking, just ALT then S.

I understand what the envelope colors etc mean. I still cannot seem to find out what the lit and unlit bulbs are for next to each forum topic. Anyone?

A white lightbulb next to a forum means there are no new posts since your last visit.

Monogodo,
Thanks!!, I figured it was something like that, but couldn't find a reference in any key.
