"New Posts" button drives me crazy!

**Sonicxtacy02** · 10-07-2009, 03:15 PM

is it just me or does the "New Posts" link not work as the name intends? It never shows me all of the new posts since my last visit to the forum. Sometimes it will tell me there are no new threads to view when on the main forum page i can see 10 new threads i've never seen. Other times it gives me 1 page or so... but when i click "Posts from the last day" there are 3 pages of threads i havent seen. I also see a problem with moderation that i bet is a result of that link. I'll see unmoderated posts from 12+ hours ago but all of the more recent posts have been moderated. Is there anything that can be done about this?

Works fine for me unless I look around the site without viewing the new posts first. If I log in and stay for a while, it'll mark posts as read for some reason. Then when I click New Posts, it'll show 1 or 2 threads and that's it. It actually happened when this thread popped up, it was the only new thread that showed, I kind of laughed to myself because I knew what it was going to be about.

Well that's how it is supposed to work.

New posts are posts that are new since your last visit, not new posts you have not read.

So if you have visted the forum and looked around, that's classified as a visit.

Yea but you didn't actually "read" any of the posts...
I think it has something to do with the "latest posts" section-it seems like after x minutes everything visible in the list gets marked as read.

Edit:
Well there should be an option for only posts you have not read...not posts "since you last visited"
