go here:
http://www.left4dead411.com/forums/
Then scroll down past the board topics. It there shows the last 15 posts. You can also click on the button on the top that says "new posts". But I personally like the former method I listed.

The first method you listed is more similar to the previous five posts on the sidebar thing from the old forum. The second will actually show all new posts since your last visit, which is a really welcome addition, I think.
I thought you were referring to the old Statistics section that showed the most viewed/replied to threads and such. I've yet to find that...

Ah... right, I had totally forgotten about that because I never used it. I found it frankly quite useless because stupid threads like "rate the avatar" or "if life gives you..." game are near the top. And once they make it there, cannot be surpassed because of the massive number of posts. So they just sit there. And you know what are the active threads due to the ones most commonly at the top of the forum list or active post list.
edit: and dont get me wrong, games are good, by stupid I just mean, why should they have any more merit on being popular than threads helping people with technical problems?

Heh, it's funny. I didn't even notice that the front page didn't show the 5 recent threads anymore.
Shows how much I look at the front page!
