    Have you ever wanted to "spy" on PriusChat? Well, now you can!

    I've added a cool new way to watch as new posts & threads are added to the site - PriusChat Spy

    No need to refresh the page - just watch as new posts & threads show up automatically.

    Try it out!

    Good stuff thanks ! However it seems to run about a dozen loops & stop (refresh starts the process over again) is that what you intended (it would be nice if it ran contentiously but that would be too much overhead on your end) ?

    What it should do is start by scrolling the latest posts, then it will stop until a new post or thread is made. Depending on the time of day you won't see it move too fast.

    whoa, awesome!! Great idea Danny!

    Edit: hmm... it definitely beats "View New Posts" cause all you have to do is View New Posts once during the day and then just leave iSpy on the rest of the time lol. It's also very useful for troll-tracking!

    Danny, maybe I'm missing something but how do you access this feature other than through this post?

    That's exactly what I was thinking. Troll tracking and when a Report comes in.

    Oh great, now TP and I will be competing to see who can trash a troll faster!

    Hey by the way, where's the link (other than at the top of this thread)?

    I think a good place for a link to this would be under "Quick Links" at the top of the page.

    I like this suggestion.

    Danny: Is there any other way to get on with "spying" other than by returning here to get the link? (Other than the suggested bookmark -- I mean will there be a direct link on a PC front page?)
