Messageboards with Privacy Browsers... - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

I like messageboards where they keep what you go on anonymous(Where they DON'T write where you were on in your scroll down browser toolbar.

For example, some messageboards, like SO will let you know exactly where you were, like The Cosby Show-Theo's Haircut,(it will show up in your browser on top, where you type in web addresses and click the down area and you will see it there). Other messageboards will just say, "The Cosby Show- No one has to know what you viewed(For people who might want to go on messageboards that offend friends and family members), but there is a catch. You can go through a lot of messages before you find the one that you want to view. Which do you like better?

your browser controls the history that appears in you addressbar up at the top, not the site you are on, and as for whether anyone can see where you currently are, most messageboards (including this one) let you change your status to an "invisible mode" so you dont have to worry about that, and only the website owner has access to your viewing history on the site.
