Question Threads marked "read"

Is anyone else having a problem where when you go through a section (Lounge, EBay, whatever) and you don't go back to the main Forum page but you go to a whole different website, when you come back to X5World, none of the threads you read are marked read? (And there's no new posts in them.)

I usually have the opposite happen - where if I log on, and there are a bunch of new threads/posts, and I open none of them, and then leave the page and come back to it, all are marked "read"....Hmmm...

Something that has always annoyed me about this forum is that there seems to be no way to automatically go directly to the first unread post in a thread. In all the other forums I read, if I click on the check mark in front of the thread name, it goes straight to the first unread post. On this forum, it just goes to the first post in the thread and then I have to scroll down manually and find where the first new post is. Has anyone else noticed this?

If you are away for longer than 15 minutes it will do this.

Go to the thread and click "View first unread." It will take you to the first unread post in the thread, no manual scrolling needed.

Where is "View first unread"??

On most forums it is the little check-mark icon in front of the title of the thread. When I move my mouse over it, the caption says "Go to first new post". But when I click it, it always goes to the first post in the thread.

It's above the date and timestamp of the very first post of the thread.
