Red is a popular topic. Ones with a dot are ones you haven't read and ones with a star are ones you have participated in

I thought if it was viewed alot or had lots of replies it went from green to red and an asterisk with that was to signify that you had left a result to that topic.

That answered little.

"Tapatalk is an application to allow access to Internet forums on mobile devices" - unless mobile device's Applications remove "clutter" such as 'green and red leaves etc'. I don't use a mobile device, though information gained this morning may prompt me to do so.

They do Wollemi, I use tapatalk and it's quite good but you do loose some functionality, like the leaves, colours and dots in the margin of the full site. You loose being able to save draft material and being able to see the persons details when their on line etc. It does not resemble the main sites appearance rather, it provides a generic look for any respective site or forum that is associated with tapatalk.

What exactly are they?
Men wanted for hazardous journey. Low wages, bitter cold, long hours of complete darkness. Safe return doubtful.

It looks very similar to Riberries (Syzygium luehmannii) but I think Riberries have bigger leaves.
Sometimes, I use big words I don't always fully understand in an effort to make myself sound more photosynthesis.
