Mark threads read

[MarylandMark]

I can't figure out what the fix is for this...

I use to hit "new posts" and it would show all the new threads since I last logged in.

Then I hit the "mark forums read" under the quick links on the grey tool bar.

Now when I log in; it shows all the threads that have new post as well as a list under the bold banner

"The threads below have not been updated since your last visit or since forums have been marked read."

Can I be reset or some thing- I liked it better the old way. That way when I logged in, it would show 3 pages or 15 pages or whatever of new posts. The longer duration between log ins, the more pages there were.

The way it is for me now, I log in and there are always like 5 pages so I allot X amount of time to reading only to find out only the 1st page or 2 is of things I care about and then rest are under the bold banner"...marked read". Then I have nothing to do for an hour or so which is kind of p1ssing my boss off because I sit with my feet up vs looking like I'm working...

The link for new posts is:
http://www.seriousoffshore.com/forum...hp?do=getdaily

You can manually bookmark this, to get your desired results:
http://www.seriousoffshore.com/forum....php?do=getnew

Alternately, you can logout and log back in to reset your activity log, and/or clear all cookies and re-log in.

It looks like the "New Posts" button on the toolbar is pointed at "get daily" where it use to be pointed at "get new"?

New is new; was it changed and can it be changed back?

Alternately, you can logout and log back in to reset your activity log, and/or clear all cookies and re-log in.

I've done this. It looks like I am being remembered on the servers, not on my computers as I've cleaned every thing (wipe & ccleaner), rebooted, etc with the same result. I've logged in on 4-5 different computers with the same result- last visit remembered by the servers vs my computer.

Since I'm the only complainer we can have it my way right?

Yes it was changed to the way it is now...about 4 months ago. We like it like this.
You can always just stop reading when you get to the split line, or like I said bookmark the "get new" link.
When we next do out facelift, we'll try to get both buttons at the top.
