First unread post button. WTF? - 7/11/2013 7:25:05 PM

Recently, I've noticed that the button to take you to the unread posts on a thread has quit working, and simply takes me to the first post on the first page.

Is this a system thing, or a glitch on this ancient desktop I surf and post from?

I don't know if it's related, but yesterday and today, there are times when I attempt to back out of a thread I get stuck in the thread and can't get out without completely closing my browser and starting all over again. It'll let me go back and forth between the last two movements I made, but keeps me prisoner.

Anyone else experiencing any kind of problems?

I'm having the same issue, Rich and my computer is brand new, super high speed and top of the line so I doubt it's the computer. I vote system glitch. Kinda sucks too because I utilize that feature a lot and if I can't, I probably won't keep up on the threads as much as I would. I can barely remember my name sometimes.. no way am I going to remember where I left off in a pages long thread.

When a thread title is bolded to indicate there are new posts, it appears as a small pale green arrow and yellow tab, right next to the thead title (on the left).

It's a really useful thing when you are following several active threads.

For me it's a small arrow pointing to a piece of paper. But it quit working on me a few days ago.

Not working for me, either. Which is annoying.

Could it be browser specific? I am using firefox.
