Introducing Activity Stream Beta: Discover Threads, Pictures and Videos!

<a href="https://mbworld.org/forums/vbtimeline.php"><img src="https://i.imgur.com/5llOy7U.png" /></a>

We're proud to share with you the the first iteration of Activity Stream (Beta). Using this new feature, you can find interesting threads, pictures and videos in two ways:

1. Trending Stories: See the most active stories on the site at the moment, and jump in to respond or read more.

2. Most Recent: Everything that's happening in real time: new posts, new threads, images and more.

Coming soon, a new "Your Top Stories" stream will present discussions tailored to your activity and subscriptions in the forum.

Your feedback is really important. We need you to help us envision and shape the future of MBWorld.

Check it out here and tell us what you think:

The activity stream is awesome! I love browsing and discovering tips without jumping from thread to thread.

I can't believe that the top interior of my car is falling apart. Is a shame for a 2000 Mercedes. They don't do good quality any more, only bad quality. Everything is business. On mine is says: made in Germany, but I guess is bull**** . In Europe I used to have Mercedes.. I never saw stuff like this.
Now I bought a 2012 Mercedes-Benz C250 Turbo, I hope I'll be lucky with this one.

The idea and attempt is good, but in practice it’s not that useful.

In the original forum functionality when you select to see latest posts you are able to see most on one page and quickly scroll through titles and see sections of the board it was posted in. to me that is great and useful.

With the activity stream it takes ages to go through all recent posts and you are presented with too much info. Almost makes it hard to concentrate. Not to mention its posts not threads. That makes the list even longer and more confusing to go through.

Perhaps attempt to create something in between. Take the original layout and add two liners below the title, much like a preview function in the Outlook.
Maybe people would find that a little more useful.


and whenever you introduce new functionality, give users ability to disable it for themselves.

You're welcome! The developers are continuously working to revise the content presented and can use feedback from the community. Activity Stream will not be for everyone, but if can be a valuable tool for many as it continues to evolve. Thanks!
