Mentions counter
The mentions counter for the menu says that I have 1 unread mention. However it doesn't appear in the list at mentions action. I'm guessing that it's either a bug in the mentions counter or you guys have been talking about me behind the closed doors I can't access.
Another little issue, if I may; the "Started by author" thing might be okay for the sorting options but it looks and reads awful in the topic lists. I mean "Started by author [SiNaN]" looks pretty bad; "Started by [SiNaN]" makes a lot more sense.
Another one I've just spotted; the additional options container in the post action seems to need some top margin.

It may be. I just realised that it may be possible to check "immediately" without compromising too much performances (using the same trick of the scheduled task (I wonder why I didn't do that check at the beginning... no idea).
Then the scheduled task itself: it may be removed, yes, there are "consequences" of course: if you "mention" a user in a board he cannot see, but then he gains access to that board, without a kind of scheduled task it would be not easily possible (at least I don't have any good idea) to recover those mentions. If instead the opposite happens (i.e. a user lose access to a certain board), he will still see the mentions around without having the possibility to see the topic/message/whatever.
Actually, that second part is not very important, and TBH I tend to think it may be more correct to keep them visible to the user.
What would you prefer in similar cases?
