Here's some things for the end-user to change to add a bit of functionality to the script.
This highlights new posts, with different colors according to what time they were posted.
Change <code>function random_color</code> to this, and <code>const HIGHLIGHT_NEW_POSTS</code> to true
<code>function random_color() {
d = new Date();
h = d.getHours();
m = d.getMinutes();
s = d.getSeconds();
if (h<10) { h = '0' + h ;}
if (m<10) { m = '0' + m ;}
if (s<10) { s = '0' + s ;}
return '#' + h + m + s
}</code>
This part changes the title of the page to the number of new replies, so you can see if there are new posts from another tab.
add
<code>var i = 0;</code>
when it's setting all the other vars, and add
<code>i++;
document.title = i</code>
under
<code>if (HIGHLIGHT_NEW_POSTS) {</code>
