    Hi, I love the new forums, but have a couple of suggestions for conversations.

    First, would it be possible to have the "Allow anyone in conversation to invite others" box checked by default? That seems really harmless (if I want to share a conversation with someone else it's trivial for me to do so), while having to ask the convo starter to add someone is a minor inconvenience. This seems like it might not be possible, but I wanted to see if it is.

    Second, could we add a "BM" or "Start Conversation" button underneath posts? You can do it with two clicks right now, but shortening that to one (and making it very easy to find, instead of a bit weird depending on platform (those popup boxes don't always come up for me when I click someone's name)) seems like it could be worth doing.

    Thanks!

    I dig it. People keep saying that we don't have beermail right now. The conversations are close but I feel a lot of people aren't utilizing.

    or maybe "start conversation" button on people's profiles right to the left of "ignore follow". This way you just click their name on the forum and then click the start conversation button on their profile.
