Tracking which threads you have already read

[Owltoid]

Under User CP - there is a "new posts" button (on the front page... like the dashboard). Use it.

That's not the issue. The issue is unread posts lose their unread status even if you never read them.

I've noticed the same issue since we've moved platforms.

Yep. Another great example is when you're actually USING the "New Posts" link. If you have 4-5 pages of unread posts, the "search" that the "new posts" link generates will sometimes time out before you're finished paging through them all (unless you're a super-fast reader), causing a bunch of unread threads to now be marked read.

This is super-easy to reproduce.

Forums like this belong on Usenet where plenty of nice threaded readers with killfile support exist, and you aren't forced into any particular reader. But people need their stupid smileys and avatars.

Sorry, I couldn't resist.
